Graylog - an easy solution for log management

Image
Recently, I was researching for opensource log management tools. I had only two requirements. Log Search and Log analytics. A lot of posts in the internet suggested me to use an ELK stack. But, I wanted to do something different. I found graylog as an alternative to ELK. One can setup and run it in minutes. It uses mongodb, elastic search and graylog server. Here is the login page: grylog provides different options to stream logs into graylog server. I used the simple UDP listener and forwarded logs from multiple devices into this listener. Next step is to create dashboards using the search. Here is the search page: Once search is done, you can add the widgets to a dashboard. The dashboard will help you to get the summary of your devices at one shot. It is also possible to generate alerts on different conditions. More here: https://www.graylog.org/

But I was astonished after creating the exe file. Below are the sizes of exe files created by C ( 51k ) and Go( 2MB ) 06/03/2016  03:41 PM            51,712 hello_c.exe 06/03/2016  03:37 PM         2,434,560 hello_go.exe I understand that go can do l
