To simplify the building of pattern databases, One Identity has released (and will continue to release) sample databases. You can download sample pattern databases from the patterndb GitHub page.

Note that these pattern databases are only samples and experimental databases. They are not officially supported, and may or may not work in your environment.

The syslog-ng OSE pattern databases are available under the Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike 3.0 (CC by-SA) license. This includes every pattern database written by community contributors or the One Identity staff. It means that:

  • You are free to use and modify the patterns for your needs.

  • If you redistribute the pattern databases, you must distribute your modifications under the same license.

  • If you redistribute the pattern databases, you must make it obvious that the source of the original syslog-ng OSE pattern databases is the One Identity patterndb GitHub page.

If you create patterns that are not available in the GitHub repository, consider sharing them with us and the syslog-ng OSE community. To do this, open a GitHub issue, or send them to the syslog-ng OSE mailing list.
