The syslog-ng application is a flexible and highly scalable system logging
|
|
|
|
|
application that is ideal for creating centralized and trusted logging
|
|
|
|
|
solutions. This free, open-source version is an extremely well-developed,
|
|
|
|
|
high performance, stable system being the Linux/Unix world's most frequently
|
|
|
|
|
used alternative central logging system. The application can operate in
|
|
|
|
|
server or agent mode, and - apart from UDP - supports the reliable TCP and
|
|
|
|
|
the encrypted TLS protocols. That way syslog-ng can be used to create
|
|
|
|
|
flexible and reliable logging infrastructure even in heterogeneous
|
|
|
|
|
environments.
