On: Fluentd: a high performance unified logging layer

[riquito]

I'm just starting to adopt fluentd but I'm scared by the fact that the "official" drivers have different interfaces and unclear leadership.

e.g.

https://github.com/fluent/fluent-logger-php https://github.com/fluent/fluent-logger-python

and a bit of drama

https://github.com/fluent/fluent-logger-php/issues/36

note: I am one of Fluentd maintainers.

There is nothing to be scared:

- Fluentd is an enterprise solution already adopted by thousands of users.

- Fluentd is sponsored and made by Treasure Data[0] where we collect around 800k events per second.

- You have to make a difference between what is official and what is third party. Fluentd have more than 300 plugins and is likely that you will find some differences on how each extension is used, but at the end everything is compatible. We make sure to maintain a clean list[1] of functional and maintained extensions.

- We lead the project and we invite you to reach us anytime through our mailing list or other communication channel[2]
