AxoSyslog documentation

AxoSyslog is a cloud-native syslog-ng distribution, created by Axoflow. It also provides documentation for the syslog-related Axoflow projects, and also tips and tutorials about syslog-ng.

Cloud-ready syslog-ng images

AxoSyslog provides cloud-ready syslog-ng images. These images differ from the upstream syslog-ng images, because:

• They’re based on Alpine Linux, instead of Debian testing for reliability and smaller size (thus smaller attack surface).
• They incorporate cloud-native features and settings, such as the Kubernetes source.
• They incorporate container-level optimizations for better performance and improved security. For example, they use an alternative malloc library.
• They support the ARM architecture.

The AxoSyslog images support the following architectures:

• amd64
• arm/v7
• arm64
