Apache Kafka Tutorial - Use Cases & Challenges Logging at Scale

Organizations that handle logging at scale eventually run into the same problem: too many events are being generated, and logging components can’t keep up. Even with persistent queues and other mitigating features enabled, there’s simply not enough of a buffer between log generators and log ingesters to handle the volume of log lines coming in.

Container Logging & Devops: the Future of Kubernetes Integration

I hosted a webinar where I covered why logging is important, how to choose a logging provider. And then shared our experience of setting up logging on Kubernetes containers, the Kubernetes logging framework and the logging best practices we’ve implemented internally and supported our customers who run Kubernetes in production.

Introducing Custom Parsing on LogDNA: A dead simple way to define your own log parsing rules

We’re excited to announce that LogDNA’s built-in log parser offers custom parsing, now available in beta. This means you can now use our step-by-step wizard to wrangle non-standard log formats and run custom transformations on your logs, allowing you to easily search and graph log lines that were previously off limits. The best part is, it’s a simple three step process: search, extract, validate… done!

Announcing Advanced On-Premise and Multi-Cloud Logging Platforms

We’re excited to announce the general availability of our new On-Prem, Self-Hosted, and Multi-Cloud logging platforms. Our customers will have the capability to log data in their infrastructure of choice. Whether across multiple public/private clouds or within a customer’s own data center, logs can be viewed through a unified interface while addressing any data locality and performance requirements.

Devops Observability: The Evolution of Logging, Monitoring and Metrics (Webinar)

Recently, we held a webinar where Chris Nguyen, our CEO and Co-Founder and Norman Hsieh, our Head of Business Development talked about the ever increasing production of data, the shift from monitoring to observability, and the evolution of production infrastructure into multi-cloud. LogDNA is uniquely positioned to have enabled thousands of customers to gain deep insights into their evolving DevOps infrastructure.

Types of Log Management Tools and How to Choose the Best Solution

As any business running microservices, containerized applications, networking devices, or multiple servers knows, it’s important to get a centralized log management system that fits your company’s unique needs. The best log management solution should empower your business to gain insights, resolve production issues quickly, streamline your DevOps and IT teams, and allow you to work more efficiently.

The True Cost of the ELK Stack

Despite having an extensive feature set and being open source, organizations are beginning to realize that a free ELK license is not free after all. Rather, it comes with many hidden costs due to hardware requirements and time constraints that easily add to the total cost of ownership (TCO). Here, we uncover the true cost of running the Elastic Stack on your own vs using a hosted log management service.
