The problem with modern stuff is it doesn't do the very basics. Sometimes I really do want UDP dumping out into a file on another part of the network. The modern setups forget how to do this.

I saw one place that had the logs going into a database. On the same connection as the app-data. So, when the transaction failed, the logs also didn't get written. LMAO. I made them do syslog in their code, which for some of the devs was a mind-blowing. They were amazed at that we could just barf text quick&lightweight over UDP.
