Declarative control plane not just for Kubernetes projects
How do you observe and manage geographically distributed observability pipelines built from thousands of active components that deliver observability data?
Syslog-ng disk buffering for a resilient syslog architecture
syslog-ng disk buffering benefits, and how to configure it to prevent data loss from local and upstream failure modes like crashes, network outages, overloads.
AxoSyslog Observability in Kubernetes
Get more insights about your logs in Kubernetes using AxoSyslog. Monitor and visualize the metrics of your AxoSyslog Kubernetes deployments.
AxoSyslog and syslog-ng 4.2.0 release
syslog-ng 4.2 comes with new drivers and lots of new metrics to help you manage your cloud-native and on-premise observability supply chain.
AxoSyslog – Log Collection for Kubernetes
Install syslog-ng using the AxoSyslog Helm charts to send Kubernetes logs into OpenSearch. AxoSyslog is a cloud native syslog-ng distribution by Axoflow.
syslog over UDP: how to avoid losing messages
Using syslog over UDP can lead to significant message loss. Here’s how you can tune the kernel and syslog-ng parameters to minimize the risk of losing messages
Why syslog over UDP loses messages and how to avoid that
Users report that syslog over UDP loses 30-40% of their messages.
Learn why messages are dropped and how you can solve or at least mitigate the problems.

Exploring the Exciting New Features of syslog-ng 4.1
Version 4.1 with its new metrics system brings syslog-ng closer to the cloud-native ecosystem and the modern observability supply chain.
Cloud-Ready syslog-ng Images
Axoflow is happy to announce that our flavored syslog-ng container images are available for download.
Welcome to Axoflow!
Logs have been my passion for over two decades now. As a 3rd-year university student, I started an Open Source project to fix the “syslogd” problem. syslogd was the standard solution at that time to collect, deliver and aggregate system and device logs. The new project was named “syslog, the next generation” or syslog-ng for short. Well, 25 years on and we are now launching Axoflow – where we are bringing to market a long-overdue capability for the burgeoning Observability space that we anticipate will have similar impact!
The role of Open Source in the Observability Supply Chain
Open source tools have been used to implement data collection to feed SIEM and other security systems for decades. We at Axoflow feel that these existing deployments of open source technologies play an important role in the future data supply chains as well.
