Microsoft Sentinel under the new AMA (Azure Monitor Agent). Rated to 10k EPS > https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-monitor/agents/azure-monitor-agent-performance. Microsoft says it's a simulated load (with avg CPU at 51% of 800%). But in private conversations with them, they've indicated that's a hard cap. They've been slowly stepping it up. It started at 5k EPS, then 8500 EPS, and now 10k EPS. This has been a long time known issue, and something I've complained to Microsoft about. A 10k EPS limit on a single node is an absolutely insane limit to place considering the use case for the new agent is almost exclusively forwarding. Competitors (IBM, Logstash) are all well capable of supporting well into the 10s of thousands in EPS (with approiriately sized VMs...)
AMA doesn't care about VM sizing once you're above relastically above 4 vCPUs. -----Original Message----- From: rsyslog <rsyslog-boun...@lists.adiscon.com> On Behalf Of Mariusz Kruk via rsyslog Sent: Thursday, August 3, 2023 10:33 PM To: rsyslog-users <rsyslog@lists.adiscon.com> Cc: Mariusz Kruk <k...@epsilon.eu.org> Subject: Re: [rsyslog] DTLS Support with rsyslog CAUTION: The Sender is located Outside The Organization. Do not click links or open attachments unless you recognize the sender and know the content is safe. I know it can be implemented. I have it in constant use :-) The pro of rsyslog vs F5 is that rsyslog operates on a per-event basis and understands syslog with its many quirks. F5 - yes, you get support. You can also buy support for rsyslog from the guys @Adiscon. What SIEM are you sending it to if it's not a secret?
