Find a needle in a haystack--fast--with the LogJammer

The LogJammer is a new tool for fast, interactive log-file exploration. You can find crucial events and trace their consequences, even when the lines logging those events are scattered among millions of irrelevant lines in multiple locations.

• Server and system logfiles are normally scattered over many processes, files, and machines... the LogJammer combines them seamlessly.
• Searching log-files by hand with a text editor is slow and confusing... the LogJammer makes searching fast and efficient..
• A unique web interface allows quick, intuitive viewing of dense data in multiple ways--from any browser.
• Tree-control nested queries let you "hold your place" in one result set while following a new one starting there.
• Query logs by time, date, file, host, or message content, in any combination.
• Not a reporting tool... the LogJammer doesn't digest log-files, but helps you view and explore them.
• Not an triggering or intrusion-detection tool... the LogJammer lets you try many different search strings
