Dear syslog-ng users, This is the 133rd issue of syslog-ng Insider, a monthly newsletter that brings you syslog-ng-related news. NEWS Deprecating Java-based drivers from syslog-ng: Is HDFS next? ------------------------------------------------------------ While most Java-based drivers have been deprecated in syslog-ng years ago, we have recently removed all of them in preparation to syslog-ng 4.9.0. Right now, the only Java-based driver remaining is HDFS, so we want to ask the syslog-ng community if the HDFS destination is still needed for them. https://www.syslog-ng.com/community/b/blog/posts/deprecating-java-based-dri… Your first steps configuring syslog-ng -------------------------------------- Some of our most active users chose syslog-ng because of its detailed and accurate documentation (https://syslog-ng.github.io/) Later I received complaints that it is too detailed, and we need a tutorial: https://peter.czanik.hu/posts/syslog-ng-tutorial-toc/. This time, I was asked for something even shorter. Here you are! https://www.syslog-ng.com/community/b/blog/posts/your-first-steps-configuri… Prometheus exporter in syslog-ng -------------------------------- Last year, we published a Prometheus exporter for syslog-ng, implemented in Python. However, syslog-ng 4.9.0 will include one that runs as part of syslog-ng. Needless to say, testing and feedback are very welcome! https://www.syslog-ng.com/community/b/blog/posts/prometheus-exporter-in-sys… WEBINARS * You can learn about upcoming webinars and browse recordings of past webinars at https://www.syslog-ng.com/events/ Your feedback and news, or tips about the next issue are welcome.
