ElastiSearch, Kafka and HDFS destination drivers are implemented by using the 'official' Java client libraries and syslog-ng provides a way to set their own, native configuration file. Log messages generated by the client Java libraries are redirected to syslog-ng via our own Log4JAppender which means that those logs are available as internal syslog-ng messages.
