Title: Logging
Status: In Progress
# Logging
The controlling of individual logs is a cumbersome job, even in an environment with only
few computer system. But it's even more worse in typical clouds with a large number of
nodes. Here the centrallized approach using `rsyslogd` helps. It allows you to aggregate
the logging output of all systems in one place. Here the monitoring and analysis gets
more simple.
Ubuntu uses `rsyslogd` as the default logging service. Since it is natively able to send
logs to a remote location, you don't have to install anything extra to enable this feature,
just modify the configuration file. In doing this, consider running your logging over
a management network or using an encrypted VPN to avoid interception.
