Abstract
The invention relates to an edge-based log collecting device for collecting logs from several log sources located in a remote network, called edge-network, and sending the logs to a cloud-based system distant from the edge-network. The device is located in the edge-network, and the device includes several processing nodes for processing logs received from the log sources and sending them to said the system. The device is configured to elect, according to a predetermined election algorithm, one of the processing nodes as a master node configured for receiving the logs from all log sources of the local network, and sharing the logs with the other processing nodes. The invention further relates to a computer program and a device configured to carry out such a method.
