We would like to proudly announce our first public release of ‘logback-redis’. This library enables JVM applications to log directly into a Redis+ELK stack with logback. https://github.com/idealo/logback-redis The logback-redis appender has been battle-tested in conjunction with logstash-logback-encoder [1], which takes care of JSON-encoding and buffering. We aimed for: - developer-friendliness (easy to configure, safe to use) - maximum throughput (Redis pipelining support) - high software quality We use this library for apps in a RELK (Redis-Elasticsearch-Logstash-Kibana) environment in production for over six months, handling easily 1000 messages/second per host, used by over 50 installations concurrently. Why did we implemented another solution?

We experienced load problems with existing libraries at 100 m/s.

Another similiar library is aqlu/logstash-logback-encoder-extends [2]. We welcome any feedback at https://github.com/idealo/logback-redis.
