Built LogSlash — a Rust pre-ingestion log firewall to reduce observability costs
Built LogSlash, a Rust-based log filtering proxy designed to suppress duplicate noise before logs reach observability platforms.
Goal: Reduce log ingestion volume and observability costs without losing critical signals.
Key features:
- Normalize → fingerprint logs
- Sliding-window deduplication
- ERROR/WARN always preserved
- Prometheus metrics endpoint
- Docker support
Would appreciate feedback from DevOps / infra engineers.
