NGINX / fail2ban Log Reader - for YOU
I use this to monitor my reverse proxy (SWAG) and fail2ban logs in conjunction. It's not as streamlined as GoAccess, GrayLog, Grafana, etc . . . but it is very personal.

I Don't Think Elasticsearch Is a Good Logging System
What we do internally is use [syslog-ng](https://github.com/syslog-ng/syslog-ng) to read the journald socket and push to a remote and into Kafka. I think journald works well as a structured logging tool, but it's certainly deficient in other ways
