Docker logging solution? (sh.itjust.works)

What is everyone using for their logging solution? So far I’ve not really done anything and just tail the container log when something is going wrong but a more long term, robust log aggregator would be great.

At work I’ve used things like data dog and sumo logic for logs and would love a small self hosted version of that. I don’t think I need long log retention (more than a day or two) but retention + search and maybe the option to create custom aggregations based on those logs would be awesome.

Not sure if it answers your question, but I use Portainer to check the different docker containers I am running. It does not allow me to check the 'docker-runtime' logs themselves though, only the logfiles of each of the running containers. It also allows easy term connection if you want, although I usually do that directly form the terminal itself.

    Yeah I think that would give me essentially the same access that I have now but through a GUI. I’m hoping for something that will cram my logs into a data store of some sort and present them on a GUI with search, filter, aggregations, etc…
