What is Fluentd?
Fluentd is an open source project designed to manage logs efficiently. It is compatible with several different platforms and can communicate with a large number of different types of logging systems. Fluentd has a pluggable architecture, which means it can be easily adapted to different environments. Fluentd is a good solution for collecting and analyzing logs in real time. Fluentd is comparable to other logging systems, such as Logstash and Splunk. All of these systems have their own pros and cons, but Fluentd is a good all-round solution for many different types of environments.
