LogLogic Launches Lasso Gateway Appliance

LogLogic launched Project Lasso in April 2006 as the first comprehensive open source solution for Windows systems administrators to collect log data in a central location. Project Lasso and the LogLogic LG 400 together provide easy-to-use Windows logging solutions that reduce maintenance costs and the impact on storage and processing of monitored servers.

"The LogLogic LG 400 and Open Lasso SDK continue to build upon LogLogic's commitment to open log management," said Bassam Khan, vice president of product management and product marketing at LogLogic. "We have developed Project Lasso, LogLogic LG 400, Open Lasso SDK, and the world's first open API for log management to empower our customers with highly customized environments to meet nuanced operational, security and compliance needs."

LogLogic LG 400 Key features include centralized Windows Event log collection that eliminates the need for countless Windows collection agents across various servers.

Its appliance-based gateway solution simplifies deployment and management costs. LG 400 collects up to 2500 messages per second from a remote host population of up to 500 systems.

It can convert remote Windows Events into a standard syslog-ng message stream for easy integration with LogLogic's family of log management solutions.

The LogLogic family of LX-ST and MX appliances address the compliance, operations and risk mitigation needs for collecting, storing, reporting and alerting on 100 percent of IT log data from virtually any device, operating system or application.
