我如何使用和管理日志[Log4j] Java？

Question

I'm new in Framework's logging and i need your advice.
I develop a java EE application and i want to integrate logs in it, I see that I can use RollingFileAppender to save my logs in files. But what i want to do is to manage those logs, filter them by categories and create a statistics. I know that if i use JDBCAppender i can do such things but this solution is not recommended because of using a lot of resources . any recommended solution ?

Answer 1

For Logging I would recommend to use SLF4j and try the new Log4J 2 binding .

To analyse log files from several nodes there are tools such as Splunk (commercial) or GrayLog (Open Source with commercial support).
