⁠Fluentd: Open-Source Log Collector

Fluentd⁠ collects events from various data sources and writes them to files, RDBMS, NoSQL, IaaS, SaaS, Hadoop and so on. Fluentd helps you unify your logging infrastructure (Learn more about the Unified Logging Layer⁠).

An event consists of tag, time and record. Tag is a string separated with '.' (e.g. myapp.access). It is used to categorize events. Time is a UNIX time recorded at occurrence of an event. Record is a JSON object.

⁠Example Use Cases

Use Case	Description	Diagram
Centralizing Apache/Nginx Server Logs	Fluentd can be used to tail access/error logs and transport them reliably to remote systems.	[]
Syslog Alerting	Fluentd can "grep" for events and send out alerts.
Mobile/Web Application Logging	Fluentd can function as middleware to enable asynchronous, scalable logging for user action events.
