Scylla Add-ons

Overview

Our Scylla deployments support the Syslog-NG add-on, with Papertrail or Loggly. It's billed at $9.00/mo

Syslog-NG

Configuration instructions for the syslog-ng add-on can be found on the Syslog-NG Setup page.

Logs are forwarded continuously from all the capsules present on your deployment; so you will see database logs and jmx logs in chronological order. For easier parsing, Compose adds a header to each log message that contains a timestamp, hostname, and process information.

As a result, the raw messages that arrive at your service will vary.

Papertrail

Raw Message:
<timestamp> <hostname>: <binary[pid]>: <type info> | <jmx, or ScyllaDB log>

Loggly

Raw Message:
<hostname> : [<customer [email protected]>] <binary[pid]>: <type info> | <jmx or ScyllaDB log>

NB: In addition to just displaying the raw information from syslog-ng, Loggly also applies some parsing by default. It does not recognize the format of our logs, so you may want to implement your own parsing or derived fields to make more effective use of the logs there.

Logentries

Logentries is no longer available for new deployments or as a new add-on for existing deployments. The format is here for deployments where it is already configured.
Raw Message:
<timestamp> <hostname>: <binary[pid]: <type info> | <jmx, or ScyllaDB log>
