Service Accounts Can Create Havoc on Log Servers
One of the fundamental reasons why central archive log servers can balloon up overnight is because of service accounts. Service accounts can generate thousands of logs, in hours, because they perform automated duties for the enterprise. LogClarity provides an easy-to-use method to filter out the service account logs or redirect them to a secondary location for further review.
This can help increase performance of the operational database, for searches and reports, without losing any service account logs. This also ensures that the archive server isn't comprised of repetitive and unusable logs which can shorten log retention and slow down data mining searches. These user-defined filtering options may be utilized within the LogClarity configuration panel. LogClarity offers additional filtering for customizing service accounts event log collection, syslog event collection, and database access event collection. Each of these areas can require certain events to be filtered out. LogClarity provides all the necessary features to help solve the entire log management lifecycle.
