I'm currently doing some research on async event logging projects. In the documentation of fluentd, I've seen the built-in in_forward plugin. I'm trying to use it with php event logger of fluentd. I'm trying to forward the local logs into a central log server with use of different plugins of fluentd. For example, I've used cassandra-cql plugin to save the event logs on cassandra column family.

So, here's my question;

Exactly when do I get response from when using forward ?

Is it after a successful write on local td-agent's ? Is it after a successful cassandra write ? Is it completely async ?

When you're using PHP client, the client library just sends a log record to local Fluentd and doesn't receive any ack message etc from the local agent. Meaning it's completely async.
