HI every one. My friend wants to ask the following questions, but he cannot post on the rsyslog list. The strange thing is that there is no yes/no response from the list. He has subscribed twice. Please help.
Thanks. ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: waqar afridi <[email protected]> Date: Tue, Oct 29, 2013 at 10:42 AM Subject: Fwd: RSyslog Logstash Kibana Elasticsearch Preference To: Sir Masoom Alam <[email protected]>, ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: waqar afridi <[email protected]> Date: Tue, Oct 29, 2013 at 10:04 AM Subject: RSyslog Logstash Kibana Elasticsearch Preference To: [email protected] Hello All I hope everyone would be OK, First of All I would welcome my self to RSyslog family with this email. I have alot of questions that I will ask from time to time and I hope my rookie question would be tolerated :p I have few question *Log Collection through RSyslog or Logstash* I want to collect log and then store it in elasticsearch, I have already have did this btw, I can collect log through logstash, store it in elasticsearch and then display it through Kibana, my Question is why use Logstash? Can't RSyslog provide all these functionality of log collection? The only reason I see is that Logstash have filters, RSyslog can store logs in elasticsearch through OMELASTICSEARCH, why using logstash is so highly recommended? *Kibana vs Elasticsearch UI* This question does not concern this mailing list but I will ask it anyway may be in near future someone like me will come looking to answer the same questions :p which one should I prefer? Kibana or the UIs for elasticsearch? My main concern is to minimize rely my dependance on external tools as much as possible without weakening my Log-server. More Questions to come in Near Future Regards -- *Waqar Afridi* waqarafridi.wordpress.com http://pk.linkedin.com/pub/waqar-afridi/15/98/494 http://imsciences.edu.pk/serg/2010/10/waqar-afridi/ Member CSRDU http://csrdu.org/ <http://csrdu.org/blog/people/> -- *Waqar Afridi* waqarafridi.wordpress.com http://pk.linkedin.com/pub/waqar-afridi/15/98/494 http://imsciences.edu.pk/serg/2010/10/waqar-afridi/ Member CSRDU http://csrdu.org/ <http://csrdu.org/blog/people/> _______________________________________________ rsyslog mailing list http://lists.adiscon.net/mailman/listinfo/rsyslog http://www.rsyslog.com/professional-services/ What's up with rsyslog?
