Adiscon has extended rsyslog with a native OpenTelemetry (OTLP) output module, enabling direct log export into OpenTelemetry-based observability pipelines. The new module, omotlp, is the Phase 1 implementation and focuses on OTLP/HTTP with JSON payloads.

Abstract Adiscon runs two first-class lines of work: open source and closed source. We apply clear policies per project, keep boundaries explicit, and share engineering concepts and practices where that makes sense. This post explains the pattern: how we develop in both worlds, how ideas flow in both directions, and why we consider that co-evolution […]
We are pleased to announce the release of liblognorm 2.0.8, the fast log normalization library. This is a pure maintenance release aimed at addressing specific border cases to improve overall stability. While liblognorm is the engine behind rsyslog’s log normalization capabilities (specifically mmnormalize), it is as a stand-alone library which is also used by other […]
