Problem Summary

Services producing logs in a standard syslog format, do not have a convenient way for ingressing those logs into Loggregator. This makes ideas like the Developer Segmented Firehose or Nozzles as a Service limited in potential. Also, some Operators would prefer all logs (Platform and Application) be combined into a single stream.

Solution Summary

A simple component that can be bosh deployed that ingests syslog format, convert it to Loggregator API envelopes and send them to Metron with relevant tags included on the envelope. This would be similar to how the statsd-injector currently works.
