Graylog Integration
With the ilert Graylog integration, you can create alerts in ilert based on Graylog alerts.
Graylog is a sophisticated log management and Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) solution that assists teams in addressing security, application, and IT infrastructure issues. It achieves this by providing a platform to combine, enrich, correlate, query, and visualize all your log data in a single location. This centralized approach enhances the efficiency of managing large volumes of log data, which is crucial for monitoring systems, debugging applications, and maintaining security.
