Hi everyone I was thinking about possibly reducing the logging data volume that's being transmitted by rsyslog. At the moment I have rsyslog on the log clients, forwarding to logstash which filters and dumps into elasticsearch. I realise that there will be a performance penalty but it seems that rsyslog is clever enough to only compress when it's going to make a reasonable difference.
If I wanted to use the ZipLevel option on my rsyslog forwarding action, would I also need to have rsyslog on the other end to decode? Or would logstash be able to handle incoming log data that's been zip compressed?
