NXLog is a multi-platform log management solution that allows to collect logs from various sources, filter log events, transform log data and route (forward) it to different destinations.[1] It's available both as a free-of-charge NXLog Community Edition and as a commercial NXLog Enterprise Edition with enhanced capabilities, including agent management.[2]
NXLog is used as an integration component of many security products, like SIEM solutions, including Google Chronicle,[3] Microsoft Azure Sentinel,[4] Securonix,[5] LogPoint;[6] XDR/EDR solutions, including Rapid7 InsightIDR/OPS,[7] Vectra Platform,[8] Trellix XDR;[9] and MSSP/MDR solutions (e.g. from Arctic Wolf[10] and AT&T Cybersecurity[11]). It’s also known as integration component for application performance monitoring (APM) and observability platforms like Datadog,[12] Graylog,[13] Coralogix,[14] SolarWinds Loggly,[15] IBM Log Analysis,[16] Mezmo (former LogDNA),[17] as well as a log management component for industrial control systems (SCADA/ICS), including power automation solutions from Siemens.[18]
Being able to run as a local log collection agent and as a network log aggregator,[19] NXLog supports a wide list of operating systems including Microsoft Windows, Apple macOS, Amazon Linux, Ubuntu, RedHat Linux, CentOS, Debian, SLES, IBM AIX, Oracle Solaris, FreeBSD and OpenBSD.[20]
The source code for NXLog Community Edition is public and available as a GitLab project.[21]
