logFACES Enterprise Logging Suite Description

logFACES Enterprise Logging Suite is composed by two applications which deal with software integrations, testing, field support or development, should find this product very useful. LogFaces is an out-of-the-box solution built on top of Apache Logging Services. With the help of logFACES Enterprise Logging Suite you have the possibility to find problems instantly, get notified in real-time when the system has issues and improve collaboration by sharing log information. There are three players - your system, logFaces Server and logFaces Clients. It works like this, your system sends log data to the logFaces Server using the appenders we provide. The server collects and routes this data to interested clients in the form that they define. The only requirement is to produce log in the format understood by the logFaces Server, which is currently Apache log4xxx API's schema. In the future we are planning to extend this format to alow other source types but today log4xxx API's are the de-facto standards in software development and most systems already support them. In such cases the integration is straightforward and is only a matter of simple configuration. Personal Edition There is a lighter version of logFaces which involves only two players - your system and logFaces Client directly. In this configuration the client runs a small embedded server inside. This variation is available as a Personal Edition for those who only need real-time viewer and typically don't require multi-user environment and database storage. Main features: Out-of-the-box solution: Everything needed to deploy a centralized logging system for numerous applications and users is bundled into a light-weight package with a distinct set of features. Non-intrusive integration: If your system is using the Apache Logging Services or any flavour of syslog, the integration is as simple as setting up an appender or redirecting the log traffic to our server. High throughput: In most cases the database is the bottle neck; data intensive deployments are advised to use MongoDB instead of traditional RDBS. Storage: The default server installation is bundled with an embedded database for very basic use. This will get you logging in no time. Access control: Servers are accessed by multiple users for real-time monitoring and data mining. Users may work with several workspaces and share them among team members. It is possible to secure the transport between clients and servers by means of SSL. Clustering: It is possible to deploy several logFaces nodes to work as a unified system. This can serve the purpose of splitting the high load from numerous applications or ensuring the fail-over. logFaces nodes can share single database and direct incoming traffic to a single common storage. On the other end, the clients can use single access point for real-time or historical data. Friendly log viewer: logFaces client is available for Windows, Linux and Mac OSX for 32 and 64 bit architecture. The client assists you in making sense out of the log stream converting a large amount of log data into a meaningful piece of work. Diagnostic context: The server can be configured to recognize mapped diagnostic context streaming from applications. This information is used with all views, filters and database queries. One of the typical uses of MDC is to track particular session ID or certain user activity in web applications. Notifications: logFaces generates reports - log files extracted from the database on timely basis, formatted according to your criteria and sent to your email. No need to keep track of your log files any more, simply create a report and have the logs automatically emailed. logFaces also generates real-time notifications by listening for a particular pattern of log events. We call them triggers - they are similar to reports but fired immediately as certain criteria, based on the log data going through the server, are met. Specifying the criteria enables you to detect very particular log statements from very particular sources. API for writing your own data handlers: The API is created to let you, the programmer, use aggregated log data in your own system. If you are familiar with the way log4j works, look at logFaces API as a "super-receiver", which simultaneously gets data from many applications and hosts. Automatic software updates: Client and server updates are automated, click of a mouse and your software gets updated from our site.
