Eric Yang commented on CHUKWA-389:
----------------------------------
A reminder that we put agent on every box to queue up the data to avoid too
many TCP connections being open per box.
By passing the agent, the gene will be out of the battle again. :)
> Send chunks directly from a log4j appender to the collector without writing
> to local drive

> Key: CHUKWA-389
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CHUKWA-389
> Project: Hadoop Chukwa
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: data collection
> Reporter: Jerome Boulon
> Assignee: Jerome Boulon
>
> Currently Chukwa required to first write the data to the local drive and run
> an agent on every single box in order to be able to collect logs.
> This is a good solution if you cannot afford to loose any data but sometime
> you don't want to run an agent on very single box.
> In that case, a new log4J appender could be used to send data directly from
> the application to a collector.
