We're excited to announce that DevOps-GPT now integrates with journalctl, significantly enhancing log analysis capabilities. This means faster debugging and smarter automation for DevOps teams.
With this update, DevOps-GPT can now analyze:
✅ Systemd Journal Logs - The systemd journal collects logs from:
🔹 System services (e.g., nginx.service, sshd.service, docker.service, kubelet.service)
🔹 Applications – Any app logging into systemd's journal
🔹 Linux Kernel – Low-level system messages, hardware failures, and driver issues
✅ How Does DevOps-GPT Process These Logs?
📌 It runs journalctl with:
🔹 --since – Fetch logs since the last scan
🔹 --priority err – Focus on error logs
🔹 --output json – Structured log format for easy parsing
🔹 --no-pager – Ensures smooth integration
🔍 The Smart Workflow Behind It:
1️⃣ Reads logs in JSON format for structured analysis
2️⃣ Filters only error logs to reduce noise
3️⃣ Tracks duplicates and detects patterns for deeper insights
4️⃣ Analyzes errors for root causes using AI-powered techniques
5️⃣ Stores processed logs for future checks to enhance automation
📌 Why does this matter?
With deeper log visibility, DevOps-GPT can now detect incidents faster, automate responses, and improve root cause analysis across system, application, and kernel logs. This helps teams streamline troubleshooting, enhance observability, and improve security monitoring.
