Log centralization
- Description
-
Refers to the process of consolidating logs from multiple sources into a central repository, such as NXLog Platform or your SIEM. Log aggregation agents, such as NXLog Agent, may offer extra functionality, such as log parsing, filtering, correlation, and data normalization.
Log centralization provides administrators with a comprehensive view of activities across their network, making it easier to identify and troubleshoot issues. Storing logs in a central location offers several benefits over logs on disparate systems and is a fundamental part of an effective log management strategy.
One of the most critical aspects determining whether your strategy is successful is the log collection agent you choose. NXLog Agent boasts industry-leading log processing features and an unmatched ability to integrate with any SIEM solution.
