VictoriaLogs is a high-performance log database designed to ingest, store, and query log data efficiently across everything from small single-node deployments to larger clustered environments.
It focuses on straightforward operation with a zero-config approach, while still offering fast full-text search, analytics, and field extraction through its LogsQL query language. The software also integrates with common log collection pipelines and provides both a built-in web interface and Grafana support for exploring and visualizing log data.
This is free and open source software.
