OK Log is a distributed, coordination-free log management system for large clusters, distributed as a single static Go binary. It aggregates logs from services and lets you query them on-prem without the operational complexity of Elasticsearch. The project is now archived and unmaintained.

Use cases

  • aggregate logs from many servers without manual tailing
  • self-hosted alternative to Loggly
  • simpler on-prem log store than Elasticsearch
  • replace a slow Fluentd/Logstash pipeline
  • just grep my logs across a cluster

When to choose

  • you want a simple, easy-to-operate on-prem log aggregation tool
  • you find Elasticsearch overkill or unreliable for your log volume
  • you want a single static binary with minimal dependencies

When to avoid

  • you need a maintained project with active support
  • you need rich search features, dashboards, or alerting
  • you want a cloud-native solution integrated with Kubernetes ecosystems
