1 Introduction
logFaces is a centralized logging system for applications. It aggregates, analyzes, stores and
dispatches log data and events related to the log data.
There are three players in logFaces architecture:
1. your system producing log data
2. logFaces server consuming log data from large amount of apps and hosts
3. logFaces client presenting log data in real-time, historical or analytical form.
logFaces is designed to work with the following sources and network protocols:
•
Apache log4xxx API appenders over TCP or UDP
•
Syslog RFC5424 and RFC3164 over TCP or UDP
•
Raw text log files (offline processing)
