Abstract
Systems and methods of collecting and aggregating log data with fault tolerance are disclosed. One embodiment includes, one or more devices that generate log data, the one or more machines each associated with an agent node to collect the log data, wherein, the agent node generates a batch comprising multiple messages from the log data and assigns a tag to the batch. In one embodiment, the agent node further computes a checksum for the batch of multiple messages. The system may further include a collector device, the collector device being associated with a collector tier having a collector node to which the agent sends the log data; wherein, the collector determines the checksum for the batch of multiple messages received from the agent node.
