It reads +log entries over a given protocol, extracts them, decodes them using a +given format, re-encodes them into a different format, and +asynchronously pushes the result into a remote data store. + +Flowgger is designed to be: + +- Paranoid: it carefully validates input data to prevent injection of + malformed/incomplete records down the chain. +- Safe: written in Rust, without any unsafe code. +- Fast: even though messages are systematically parsed and validated, + Flowgger is orders of magnitude faster than Logstash and Fluentd. +- Standalone: it comes as a single executable file, and doesn't require a JVM. + +Flowgger supports common input types: stdin, UDP, TCP, TLS and Redis, +as well as multiple input formats: JSON (GELF), LTSV, Cap'n Proto and +RFC5424. Normalized messages can be sent to Kafka, Graylog, to +downstream Flowgger servers, or to other log collectors for further +processing. + +WWW: https://github.com/jedisct1/flowgger |
