Just think of #Splunk, #Elasticsearch / @OpenSearchProject , #SumoLogic & Co.

One of the most frequent syslog-ng feature requests is now resolved. Welcome the --check-startup option, allowing you to check the syntax of the #syslog_ng configuration, and also spot spelling mistakes!

Wow, #Cisco is buying #Splunk:

Splunk is one of the most popular destinations in syslog-ng. I wonder how this acquisition will influence this. Will it make Splunk even stronger, or other log #analytics tools get now a chance? #LogManagement
