Background
For my servers I rely on external logging services. I first used Loggly.com but in meanwhile switched to Logz.io. Both are great services and offer free tiers for private use - usually very limited but sufficient if you have only few servers/services. For my servers I prefer to use rsyslog to forward the logs. In order to setup, I use this ansible role.
This role is based on the role from jmcvetta/ansible-loggly. His role is focused on Loggly.com while I extend my role to support other services as well
