Question Nginx log files entries from 4 server in another server


Hello

Is there any software/way to have all the Nginx log files entries to another extra server all together?

Maybe having an interface also to search on them?

Thank you

You can use syslog facility to send nginx logs to an external server.
From there perhaps you can try this.

Log forwarding. There are a quite a few methods around.
I used {r,}syslog until we didn't. I had to "see the logs" all in "one place" also, otherwise, a boring parade of dry logs.
"Managers Love Shiny shit" So, of course graphs, or charts. Kibana is strong.fu

I heard about "Kibana" when "Elasticsearch" first came on the scene.

Visualizing Logs Using ElasticSearch, Logstash and Kibana

I believe what you choose to "view forwarded logs" is secondary to getting log forwarding working.
I encourage you to see the results that can be achieved with Kibana.

Have Fun!
