Hi,

I'd like to store my logs in a database, instead of text files.
Many years ago I thought a mysql or postgresql can be excellent for that purpose, but today...
I'm a little bit confused.
Should I use an RDBMS? Or should I turn to noSQL databases? (mongoDB?)

The only thing I'm sure, I don't want to use any other log manager(??) software (like Graylog, elasticsearch etc.) I'd like to use only a syslog-ng server with a database.

Could you help me?

Victor :)
