scribe with protocol buffer and advanced thrift?
I have two questions here: Question 1: -- can thrift provide an inner-class functionality? (see my example next) -- if it can, can thrift use such functionality easily?

Scribe, Flume and Chukwa - what are alternatives?
Hello, I would like to learn about alternatives to those projects, especially designed to aggregate data from logs from multiple nodes (>500) and designed for low memory/cpu usage. I'm familiar with scribe, flume and chukwa and I think that they use too much resources (JRE, many libraries). All comments and recommendations about aggre...
