- Syslog-ng is a log server…and can also be used to forward logs.…In fact, Syslog is a predecessor of Syslog-ng.…NG in Syslog-ng stands for Next Generation.…What does Syslog-ng do?…First of all, it collects events.…It forwards the logs to another…log management system or database.…Syslog-ng collects logs, and it manages the logs.…After all, it does all of the above…better and faster than the old Syslog.…
One of the important features of Syslog-ng is filtering…because there are simply too many logs to store.…Another important feature is processing,…meaning doing something to the collected logs.…With Syslog-ng, you can cover many…challenging logging-related tasks.…
