Good question.
How many servers do you have to collect logs from?
I'd like to hear of people who have used both Splunk and/or prelude in an
environment with, say, 500<x<1000 servers, for collection of logs and can
voice a few opinions.
The problem, as the author recognizes, is not collection but retrieval and
processing (a cron-job that deletes them periodically does not qualify as
"processing"...).
