Increase your Server Manager’s & Security team’s ability to manage Apache logs and metrics to meet data, compliance and security analyticsgoals with Logit.io and say goodbye to having to resort to manually searching through thousands of logs.
Traditionally teams often resort to using methods such as Grep to troubleshoot Apache errors, this can quickly prove ineffective when your logs are located across a distributed environment.
Our platform allows you to troubleshoot your Apache server logs efficiently by providing a unified source of truth for not only your Apache logs but for all of your server, network and system logs, enabling you to conduct faster anomaly detection, visualise traversed paths and set up alerts to notify your team when errors are encountered.
The majority of typical Apache log viewers are not built for scalability and subsequently do not provide support to ensure the platform is consistently fast as your log input increases. As well as delivering on all these essential requirements, Logit.io also doesn’t lock in your data, so if you need to export your Apache logs for long term cold storage in S3 then this is fully supported by our platform.
Unlike other log viewers and log management systems, Logit.io does not charge separately for metrics storage and monitoring. Metrics are included alongside logs across all of our plans.
Want to request a demo or need to speak to a specialist before you get started? No problem, simply select a time that suits you in our calendar and a member of our technical team will be happy to take you through the platform and discuss your requirements in detail.
An Apache log viewer and reader is essential for monitoring the most important Apache log fields and metrics and providing actionable intelligence for engineers to improve their web server performance.
Reading the individual logs of Apache servers and correlating them against your wider technology stack can often be highly time-consuming and ineffective for busy system administrators.
By monitoring Apache logs with a centralised solution like Logit.io you can rapidly improve your time to resolution for fixing errors and identifying and resolving performance bottlenecks.
Identify errors, suspicious traffic, hacking attempts, and other high alert events occurring against your Apache web server with Logit.io.
Unlike free Apache log viewers, Logit.io operates in full compliance with SOC 2, ISO/IEC 27001, GDPR, PCI & HIPAA and even provides regional data centres for users that wish to ensure localised compliance. Logit.io is also the only observability platform that operates in compliance with Cyber Essentials, an essential cybersecurity accreditation for UK based businesses.
Cyber Essentials is a government-backed compliance standard offered by the National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) that enables companies to demonstrate that they have protected themselves against the most common causes of cyber-attacks.
In addition to this, Logit.io is notably easier to configure than free Apache log viewers as you can launch our analysis dashboards within meer minutes of registering.
"Internally, Logit.io has made it easier for us to provide better support for our customers, since finding individual messages based on various data in the payload has become easier.
At Youredi, pretty much everyone from our technical support teams through to our professional services teams uses Logit.io."
Mats von Weissenberg, CTO @ Youredi
"One thing is certain when operating in the startup space, a strict budget. Before we make any purchase decision to use a SaaS Log Management platform, we need to validate the benefits of the platform and more importantly the team behind the platform.
Logit.io's customer support team stood out. Right from the beginning, the Logit.io team was there to answer questions and walk us through the process."
Ioannis Sintos, Co-Founder & CIO - Uizard
Logit.io offers our company an excellent solution of ingesting our logs, we recently had to do quite a few updates on the platform since the previous service owner in our company left and didn't want to do them, Logit.io was of great assistance throughout the whole process.

Parse, process and format Apache logs and metrics using Hosted Logstash for automatic logging and forwarding. Once your Apache data has been processed using Logstash, this data can be used to create intuitive reporting dashboards within minutes.
If your Apache monitoring needs go beyond our 14 day trial then you’ll be glad to know that our platform is significantly more cost effective than other log management platforms which do not provide affordable SLAs or offer generous discounts on their annual subscription plans (Logit.io offer 20% off any annual subscription + including metrics as well as logs).
Our platform UI allows you to edit your Logstash and Firewall filters, configure alerts and notifications from scratch (or use our example alerting presets) and invite the rest of your team without ever needing to leave the platform.
Logit.io’s Apache log file viewer and analyser forms just a fraction of our wider log management platform, built to handle complex log data sets from hundreds of platforms, servers and external services.
Our platform takes the best attributes from the open-source tools, Elasticsearch, Logstash and Kibana as a Service to bring managed Elastic Stack hosting with all of the capabilities needed for security and analysis with none of the overheads associated with on-premise ELK.
Our ready to go integrations allow you to ship Apache error and access logs as well as Apache HTTPD server and ZooKeeper metrics.
If in the event you require an additional integration that you can’t see in our source integrations list then feel free to reach out to our team as they’ll be happy to help you send your logs via Logstash or Filebeat.
When it comes to effectively monitoring log files created by Apache it is important to know which log types to prioritise monitoring and the reasons behind your selection.
There are two types of log files created by Apache’s HTTP Server, these are Access Logs & Error Logs.
Access logs record all requests that are processed by the Apache Web Server while Error logs capture a record of all errors encountered. Apache access logs can be used to obtain vital data related to your site’s visitors including page views, unique visits, browsing patterns and IP address distribution, these insights all prove essential when it comes to performing business analytics.
If you need to conduct root cause analysis to discover why your web server isn’t performing as expected then the Error logs will be the first place you should be analysing. Within Apache’s error logs, most users have to resort to traditional command line prompts such as “grep”, “sed” and “cat” to discover errors. By using Logit.io this manual process can be avoided entirely as errors can be visualised within our Kibana as a Service platform.
Our platform enables centralised log monitoring so that users can pinpoint the origin of 404 errors, suspicious traffic patterns and additionally offers Live Tail to expedite real time identification of issues before they can become much larger problems in need of resolution.
Logit.io provides all of our users with straightforward pricing plans, resourced accordingly with none of the additional hidden usage-based costs commonly associated with other cloud-native platforms.
Users of other cloud-native solutions often have a difficult time working out how much a platform going to charge them on a recurring basis. Especially when these services also have complicated pricing tables which prove daunting when you need to conduct due diligence by comparing service providers’ offerings.
We also do not levy egress fees for sending data outside of the platform. This makes us far more cross-compatible with complimentary services that you already use than many other platforms which lock your data into their service so you can’t export data freely without incurring unexpected fees.
Logit.io also does not implement vendor lock-in fees against our users. Vendor lock-in means that businesses who are unhappy with their current logging solution can't easily switch to another provider that actually meets their requirements.
At Logit.io we would rather our users were happy to use our platform to meet all of their data analysis requirements than use the fear of leaving fees to keep them tied to our platform.
As a platform that goes as far as to provide tailored onboarding for enterprise clients with additional needs, we are confident that our platform can meet all of your requirements without the need to use vendor lock-in.
