syslog over udp
Syslog over TCP with TLS (don't want those sweet packets containing sensitive data leaving your box unencrypted). Bonus points for mutual authentication between the server/clients (just got it working and it's ๐ - my implementation here
It solves the aggregation part but doesn't solve the viewing/analysis part. I usually use lnav on simple setups (gotty as a poor man's web interface for lnav when needed), and graylog on larger ones (definitely costly in terms of RAM and storage though)
About that I have made the simplest possible implementation of a syslog server in Rust. I use it to collect OpenWrt logs and store them on my server. ;-)
