Yes for each sever (maybe more than 10 :) )
ie - data services,appserver,esb,mb,cep,bps,brs etc all the products we
offer for stratos deployment , because we store logs for each server in
different keyspace(if not we have to keep everything in a single keyspace
per tenant and it will be an expensive search when we filter the logs from
the server level because we give users server specific logs)
In our earlier syslog implementation we divided logs per each server for
fast result (as logs generates). Thats why its very important to not to
create keyspaces if users are not using a particular product.
