I wonder if anyone can assist/advise.

We currently have an application that is using Log4net for its logging which we currently udp to logstash which we have found to be unreliable. We have a redis instance we would like to use as a message broker but log4net does not have a redis appender.

Has anyone used log4net \> Redis \> Logstash and could advise how we use redis with log4net.

Googling gives examples of custom appenders but does not explain where they need to go.
