I have a syslog-ng -> MongoDB project that I've been working on at my university. github.com/ngokevin/netshed It is written in Python current parses out fields from several types of logs (such as dhcpd). It is initially set up to read from named pipes (it has a tail function as well). Each type of log is dumped to its own database, and each date has its own collection. I have it set up with a master/slave configuration to overcome the global write lock. It has functions to simulate capped collections by days. It is followed with a Django frontend for querying via PyMongo. This version is several weeks old and I will push out a new one soon.
