Hi Everyone,

We are considering the possibility of using Observium's syslog capability to handle the syslog output of 50 machines which will be spitting out roughly 300K lines of log per hour for a grand total in the ball park 360,000,000 log entries per 24 hours.

Has anyone used/attempted to handle this volume of logging with Observium in the past? If so, would you mind sharing your experience?

I am also looking for feedback on hardware suggestions for both the Observium machine as well for the standalone database server.

Any feedback is appreciated!

Thanks,

-Lane
