Logentries Launches LogCruncher - Free Tool for Instant Web Log Analysis

Logentries released LogCruncher, a free tool for instant analysis and data visualization of web server log files.

LogCruncher does not require any set-up or installation and provides immediate visibility into Apache and Nginx web server logs. With instant access to log data visualization, Operations teams and Web Server Admins can gain immediate understanding of website analytics and user experience based on key metrics including their traffic volumes, web server health and geographical distribution of requests.

Users simply upload their web server log file to LogCruncher, and in less than 60 seconds, receive a complete metrics dashboard containing log data analysis such as:

- Number of Logs Crunched
- Activity By Time of Day
- Most Accessed Resources
- Resource Types
- Request Types
- HTTP Status
- Top Search Terms
- Response Size Distribution
- Top Remote Hosts
- Number of Unique Hosts
- Browser Share
- User OS
- Top User Countries

When Operations teams and Web Server Admins need to quickly identify system trends or anomalies, LogCruncher provides visibility into log data without requiring set-up or configuration. The tool was designed for users with minimal technical expertise, offering easy access to valuable insight for Operations, Support, Product and Marketing teams. The free tool quickly ingests Apache and Nginx log files and processes them instantly to provide a view into system usage and activity.

LogCruncher can also detect notable patterns such as high frequency of unusual HTTP status errors. LogCruncher streams end-to-end, providing data results at the same rate as the upload process. As the logs events are processed, LogCruncher parses and normalizes the incoming data into objects following a common format from which key metrics are extracted and visualized.

“Developed by the Logentries Labs research team, LogCruncher provides quick and easy visibility into web server behavior,” said Trevor Parsons, Chief Scientist and Co-Founder at Logentries. “Using log data is one of the most granular ways to understand how users are accessing web applications, especially business-critical applications. LogCruncher reveals immediate insight into the end-user experience, including web page response times and any errors they may be experiencing.”

The Logentries LogCruncher is available today for free and offers instant web server log analysis in less than 60 seconds.

A new study by the IBM Institute for Business Value reveals that enterprises are expected to significantly scale AI-enabled workflows, many driven by agentic AI, relying on them for improved decision making and automation. The AI Projects to Profits study revealed that respondents expect AI-enabled workflows to grow from 3% today to 25% by the end of 2025. With 70% of surveyed executives indicating that agentic AI is important to their organization's future, the research suggests that many organizations are actively encouraging experimentation ...

Respondents predict that agentic AI will play an increasingly prominent role in their interactions with technology vendors over the coming years and are positive about the benefits it will bring, according to The Race to an Agentic Future: How Agentic AI Will Transform Customer Experience, a report from Cisco ...

A new wave of tariffs, some exceeding 100%, is sending shockwaves across the technology industry. Enterprises are grappling with sudden, dramatic cost increases that threaten to disrupt carefully planned budgets, sourcing strategies, and deployment plans. For CIOs and CTOs, this isn't just an economic setback; it's a wake-up call. The era of predictable cloud pricing and stable global supply chains is over ...

As artificial intelligence (AI) adoption gains momentum, network readiness is emerging as a critical success factor. AI workloads generate unpredictable bursts of traffic, demanding high-speed connectivity that is low latency and lossless. AI adoption will require upgrades and optimizations in data center networks and wide-area networks (WANs). This is prompting enterprise IT teams to rethink, re-architect, and upgrade their data center and WANs to support AI-driven operations ...

Artificial intelligence (AI) is core to observability practices, with some 41% of respondents reporting AI adoption as a core driver of observability, according to the State of Observability for Financial Services and Insurance report from New Relic ...

Application performance monitoring (APM) is a game of catching up — building dashboards, setting thresholds, tuning alerts, and manually correlating metrics to root causes. In the early days, this straightforward model worked as applications were simpler, stacks more predictable, and telemetry was manageable. Today, the landscape has shifted, and more assertive tools are needed ...

Cloud adoption has accelerated, but backup strategies haven't always kept pace. Many organizations continue to rely on backup strategies that were either lifted directly from on-prem environments or use cloud-native tools in limited, DR-focused ways ... Eon uncovered a handful of critical gaps regarding how organizations approach cloud backup. To capture these prevailing winds, we gathered insights from 150+ IT and cloud leaders at the recent Google Cloud Next conference, which we've compiled into the 2025 State of Cloud Data Backup ...

Private clouds are no longer playing catch-up, and public clouds are no longer the default as organizations recalibrate their cloud strategies, according to the Private Cloud Outlook 2025 report from Broadcom. More than half (53%) of survey respondents say private cloud is their top priority for deploying new workloads over the next three years, while 69% are considering workload repatriation from public to private cloud, with one-third having already done so ...
