I see lots of tutorials like this one: http://www.everybodyhertz.co.uk/setting-up-a-relk-stack-a-how-to/ suggesting that you use logstash forwarder to send logs to redis before sending it to logstash and then to elasticsearch. I'd like to know if it is possible to send from rsyslog/syslog to redis …

Rsyslog to Redis to logstash to elasticsearch without logstash forwarder?

kurtcoke,

Good question. I am looking to do a similar setup - Pipe syslog into Redis

I ran across this tool https://github.com/genebean/sawyer earlier today but not sure if it will work with rsyslog. I am going to try it with syslog and NXLog.
