Sawmill is a Apache Custom log analyzer (it also supports the 843 other log formats listed to the left). It can process log files in Apache Custom format, and generate dynamic statistics from them, analyzing and reporting events. Sawmill can parse Apache Custom logs, import them into a MySQL, Microsoft SQL Server, or Oracle database (or its own built-in database), aggregate them, and generate dynamically filtered reports, all through a web interface. Sawmill can perform Apache Custom log analysis on any platform, including Window, Linux, FreeBSD, OpenBSD, Mac OS, Solaris, other UNIX, and others.
The database fields available in this log format are defined in the log data; Sawmill extracts the names and types of the fields from the log data, and tracks all available fields in its reports. Sawmill generates reports for each field, and allows dynamic filtering on any combination of these fields.
Sawmill stores the following numerical fields in its database for Apache Custom, aggregating them and including them as columns in most reports:
| Numerical Field | Internal Name | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| hits | hits | ||
| page views | page_views | ||
| visitors | visitors | ||
| bytes | bytes | ||
| bytes sent | bytes_sent | ||
| bytes received | bytes_received | ||
| duration | duration | ||
| time taken | time_taken | ||
| average_duration | average_duration | ||
| content length | content_length |
