Probably a series of blog posts :). Another thing that would be great is
pumping up some of the new features that log4j2 has that developers will love.
It reads a little bit like a theoretical intro to logging in general (Although
you did say clearly that that is what it is) and we have a lot of material like
that, so what is it about the presentation that should make your peers want to
pay attention? I'm sure you'll find that even if the audience have heard of
some of the new log4j2 features, they'll appreciate a recap. For example
here's a pretty good article on Kotlin that I recently read:
http://petersommerhoff.com/dev/kotlin/kotlin-for-java-devs/
A specific example of how to log from both a project dependency, as well as the
core project code, would be great as well. The FAQ is good, but it feels a
little bit like reading your Denon Receiver's manual ...
Could be that throwing in Zipkin (http://zipkin.io/) with the rest of the
reference material (Flume, etc.) would be a valued addition.

I could spend an entire blog post about Logstash and ELK in general, so I
feel it's out of scope here.
As for the other questions, I think that's covered by the FAQ <
https://logging.apache.org/log4j/2.x/faq.html>, but if it's not, that would
be useful here.

I thought it was very good. I'm a big fan of articles that come with and
reference simple examples from a github repository. One of the most
confusing aspects of Java logging is configuring it to use one provider
when multiple dependencies use different APIs ... SLF4J ... Log4J ... so if
that were included / referenced I think it would be a plus. In case you
feel like expanding on the integration with Logstash that would be awesome
too. The ELK stack seems to be getting pretty popular.
Cheers,

In preparation for an upcoming talk I'll be doing for CJUG, I'm writing a
blog post about introductory concepts to logging from both a developer and
operator point of view. My current draft is available here: <

Let me know what you think!
