New: production-ready observability stack integrated into rsyslog.
Last Friday, a new reference stack was merged. ROSI (Rsyslog Operations Stack Initiative) provides a curated setup for centralized logging and monitoring.
It combines rsyslog, Loki, Prometheus, and Grafana in a Docker Compose deployment with TLS by default.
Initial scope targets VM-based and single-host Docker setups. Kubernetes support is targeted next.
🚀 Myth-buster: rsyslog isn’t just a “legacy syslogd”.
It’s a full-blown ETL engine for modern data pipelines — ingesting from files, journals, syslog, Kafka; transforming with RainerScript, mmnormalize, GeoIP, PII redaction; and delivering to Elasticsearch, Kafka, HTTP or files.
Still the best syslogd — but also your event pipeline core.

Hier in #Großrinderfeld (Nord- BaWü, 350m ünN) ist es wirklich sehr ungewöhnlich kalt.
Das macht sich leider auch im #Gasverbrauch bei uns lokal deutlich bemerkbar, trotz Optimierungen und Reduzierungen.
