Large-scale logging made easy
Logging at scale is a common source of infrastructure expenses and frustration. While logging is something any organization does, there is still no silver bullet or just a simple and scalable solution without trade-offs. After studying the most popular logging systems, Aliaksandr came up with his design and vision of the problem. The proposed solution fits ideally for SRE, DevOps, and system engineers who need to provide logging solutions as a platform for the entire company or team. It accepts logs from existing logging agents, pipelines, and streams, efficiently stores them in a highly optimised log database and can be queried at lightning-fast speeds with perfect integration with tools like jq, awk, cut, etc.
