That's great if you have only one server, not so much if you want to search across many apps and servers at once. We use ELK, works fairly nicely.

- thaumaturgy 12y agoFair enough, I haven't had to deal with complex multi-server application logging.
- CraigJPerry 12y agoYour way still works. Syslog can ship over the network since forever. It's a security pattern to have the logs shipped to another host in production anyway.
- thaumaturgy 12y agoI did seriously consider suggesting that (it would be my default approach) but since I don't actually have any experience with big complex multi-server applications, I decided to keep my mouth shut. There might be a good reason why they don't do it that way and I wouldn't have a clue.
- patmcc 12y agoLog rotation to a centralized log server solves that problem, although maybe at the loss of easy real-time access.
