How do you find logging over RabbitMQ? I have a guy at my place who's pushing to get log messages flowing over the message bus, but using Rabbit as a logging mechanism makes me feel a bit uneasy. Do you find that it pollutes your regular messages? Or do you have them on a separate control bus?

We have several teams pushing logs into a shared Logstash, over RMQ. Depending on the amount of logs you have, I would suggest you have a separate RMQ cluster for the logs. That said RMQ is a great buffer for logs, incase there is an issue with logstash / es at the far end.
