Logentries unveiled a new online forum for its global IT Operations and Development Community to access and share Logentries Community Packs. Community Packs relieve the burden of traditional log analytics and reporting and are free for registered Logentries users.
Using collective data from Logentries’ 35,000+ global users, the new Community Packs offer “plug-and-play” insight for the most common log management and analytics activities. Logentries’ Community Packs provide the out-of-the-box tools that users need to extract key information from increasing volumes of log data so they can easily differentiate important events from the noise, without building out the analytical components from scratch. The first Community Packs focus on the most popular use cases including, AWS CloudTrail, AWS CloudWatch, Server Monitoring, Windows Security Events, Heroku, Nginx, Microsoft IIS, Apache, Ruby on Rails, and Salesforce.com
As the universal data source across the entire software stack, log events can be used to monitor and analyze all layers of a distributed IT system – from the servers, to the applications, to the end user experience. With Logentries’ Community Packs for Ops and Development, users can:
- Import a Pack in minutes and get immediate access to automated queries with real-time tags, alerts, and data visualization dashboards built out for them.
- Easily modify the open JSON format to customize a Community Pack for specific user requirements.
- Republish the modified Packs into the Logentries Community to share learning with other users managing similar applications and environments.
“Logentries’ advanced machine-learning technology, in combination with our shareable Community resources, are empowering our users to be smarter and quicker in getting the answers they need from their data,” said Trevor Parsons, Co-founder and Chief Scientist at Logentries. “Log data is extremely powerful, but it can also be quite vast. By working within a Community, our users can now take advantage of the collective experience and knowledge of the masses to help identify the key events that are relevant for their systems and use cases. You don’t have time to be an expert in everything, and you shouldn’t have to be.”
The cloud-based Logentries service collects and pre-processes log events in real-time for on-demand analysis, alerting and visualization. With custom tagging and filtering, users can correlate security and performance issues with broader infrastructure activity including application usage, server metrics and user behavior.
