Hi Rebs<br>
<br>
This on only a suggestion of a direction, one which we (Fluidinfo) are<br>
very likely to take too.<br>
<br>
The ingredients are Twisted (of course) and Scribe<br>
(<a href="http://developers.facebook.com/scribe/" target="_blank">http://developers.facebook.com/scribe/</a>). You can tie these together using<br>
the Twisted support we added to Thrift (Scribe uses Thrift). You can<br>
optionally be routing log messages through AMQP using txAMQP<br>
(<a href="https://launchpad.net/txamqp" target="_blank">https://launchpad.net/txamqp</a>).<br>
<br>
That's actually a pretty simple solution, given the existence of Twisted<br>
support for both Thrift and AMQP (if you want it). But OTOH it's not<br>
something you'll get set up without some effort and perhaps head scratching<br>
(especially if you add AMQP to the mix - it's considerably simpler if you<br>
just use Thrift with its built-in Twisted support). So if your load isn't<br>
going to be fairly heavy you'd probably be better doing something simpler.<br>
<br>
Terry<br>
