Docker and Fluentd
Docker:
> container platform what you love :D
Fluentd:
> logging platform what you love :D
6.
Logging of container architecture
Storage:
> should be outside of container / hosts
Transferring:
> should be over network
Aggregation:
> should be done per container / per service

Aggregation Patterns
(1) 1-level aggregation (2) 2-level aggregation
pros:
simple configuration
cons:
fixed aggr. address
many connections
high load for aggregator
pros:
less connections
lower load for aggr.
cons:
a bit more container

Aggregation Patterns
(1) 1-level aggregation (2) 2-level aggregation
Apps sends logs
over fluent-logger
there're some patterns...
or ...
11.
(1) Network transferring
Apps sends logs:
> using fluent-logger-*
> over inter-container network
Pros:
> no performance penalty
Cons:
> logs of docker is out of scope
> a bit complex apps for logging
over TCP
app
12.
(2) Container logger & tail
Apps write logs to STDOUT:
> docker writes it to log file
> fluentd container read file
Pros:
> simple conf for apps & docker
> logs include container logs
Cons:
> in_tail performance penalty
log file

Logging drivers
New from docker v1.6!
'Add new Logging driver "fluentd"'
> --log-driver=fluentd
> https://github.com/docker/docker/pull/12876
> New for docker v1.7.0?

over TCP
(3) Container logging driver "fluentd"
Apps write logs to STDOUT:
> docker send it to fluentd
directly!
Pros:
> simple conf for apps & docker
> logs include container logs
Cons:
> none?

Stay tune!

Fluentd docker image
Official image by fluent organization
https://registry.hub.docker.com/u/tagomori/fluentd/
(it should be "fluent/fluentd" ...)
Use it as it is, or build your own container!
