Log management tools help to manage the very large volume of log messages, or computer-generated audit trails and event logs generated by servers and other network devices. Managing this data involves defining what needs to be logged, how it should be logged and how long the log data should be kept.
Like the broader category of IT operations analytics, log management is a cousin of business intelligence (BI) but exclusively focused on the IT domain. Like BI software, log management software provides a comprehensive view of transactional data across the organization rather than multiple data silos.
There are two basic varieties of log management system. The first is centralized logging servers that collect and consolidate logs for later consumption, but do not actually analyze data. The second is security information and even monitoring (SIEM) software that provides event logging, but also aggregation, correlation, alerting and reporting services. These are more sophisticated tools more likely to be used by larger enterprises with complex IT topographies.
