Summary

The post discusses how Redis Enterprise uses syslog for logging events and alerts in a production system. It explains how to configure syslog to capture cluster events and alerts from Redis Enterprise, including creating a custom configuration file, configuring the `omfile` action to send logs to a file, and using an `omfwd` action to forward logs over the network to a centralized logging server. The post also provides examples of how to aggregate all log entries into a single location for processing and how to use syslog with tools like Splunk or Datadog to parse and integrate these messages.
