Reading, 'ensuring that data is actually written and stays written is rather difficult', immediately reminded me of https://github.com/microsoft/FASTER (its not written in Go though), which is basically dealing with just that outlet ( except I think the KV store might be ram heavy, been a bit since I last looked at it )

I recently worked on a .Net application that sends its logs to files on the local file system using the log4Net Framework (see the documentation here). With the objective of improving and centralising logs, we considered sending the logs to an Azure Application Insight. Of course, we can use the App Insight SDK, but to avoid multiplying the code, we decided to extend Log4nNet by using a Log4Net appender dedicated to App Insight. In this post walks you through the steps to configure Log4net with the Application Insights appender and view your logs in the Azure portal.
