Large scale Apache log file analysis
2 comments
Splunk is very popular, although I think it's software that you have to host. I have no idea how fast it is, but with a recent-ish machine I wonder if you could have it process stuff in a weekly batch with minimum of frustration. They have a free trial that might be worth it to you -- www.splunk.com
I'm not aware of any commercial solutions but a tool you might find useful is Hive: http://hadoop.apache.org/hive/
These videos are a great introduction: http://www.cloudera.com/videos/introduction_to_hive http://www.cloudera.com/videos/hive_tutorial

Looking for fairly simple analysis. Something similar to what weblog expert does, but on a larger scale.
Are there any commercial tools out to do this or are we stuck writing something for this?
I know we could use hive/hadoop/cassandra etc and build something. We are about to roll out another product that uses cassandra as a backend, but this is simply to get an idea of some of our basic web stats in a simple report. This is not part of our core product, so I am just looking to see if there is an easy way to do something here without a bunch of development.
