High-Availability Configurations of Fluentd
For high-traffic websites (more than 5 application nodes), we recommend using a high availability configuration of td-agent. This will improve data transfer reliability and query performance.
Monitoring
Monitoring Fluentd itself is also important. The article below describes general monitoring methods for td-agent.
