supermicro logsystem

Supermicro logsystem is based on rsyslog that can adapt for any linux log files (system logs, application logs, ...)

• Using minimal cpu, mem, io resources
• Realtime update with easy debugging/performing because of plaintext
• Core logic is based on rsyslog client-server architecture, using syslog standard for message logging
• Prevent dropping logs from client during rsyslog server outage
• Separating each client (via hostname) and each service (via systemd unit)
• Basic visualize via nginx static file serving, auto reload for fetching new logs on UI for every 30sec
• Can integrate with bigger logging system (ELK, ...)
