What do you recommend for an at-a-glance access log dashboard? Kibana and Grafana seem cool but overkill.
All I want is a dashboard that can ingest and parse syslogs from various services and neatly display a list of currently connected IPs and usernames if applicable as well as a IP connection history.
You could use a cron job to grep through the file and reformat the output into a webpage, markdown, or plain-text file.

Kibana/ES is overkill and not worth it. I have Loki, promtail and grafana setup for my 4 VMs and 2 systems. Took about a week to get dashboards and stuff going (plus geoip and worldmap plugin config for my public servers) but haven’t had to touch them in about 2 years since.
I’m currently looking for something like this as well. I’ll have to give go access a try
