Some ideas (untested of course) "I need develop an API that will read the matching pattern from the log file, and push it to the DB." <== this is NOT an API - but have look at how a different script could access your log:
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/12523044/how-can-i-tail-a-log-file-in-python Alternately: "The log file generation and the license file monitoring has been automated through Python script on the servers itself." Why not simply extend those scripts to also write selected outputs to your database? For the dashboard side, there are many existing tools that will allow you to create this; just one example is Grafana - https://grafana.com/ (Bonus: you can also use this tool to do the metrics on the server itself.)
