acronym alert, what does AMQP stand for?
It's a standard protocol to communicate with message queueing systems.
"the nice thing about standards is that there are so many to choose from"

it's vision sounds nice "To become the standard protocol for interoperability
between all messaging middleware"
but it's "yet another standard" to compete with all the others

Message queueing system implementations that support AMQP: RabbitMQ, Apache QPid
It would not be that hard to get AMQP added to rsyslog, you would just need to
have someone either write input and output modules (probably adapted from the
0mq modules to start with), or sponsor development through Adiscon professional
services (e-mail Rainer directly to get a quote, it's usually surprisingly
cheap)
persistent on-disk queues are already an option.
Yes, and I'd be happy to use them together with an AMQP output plugin for
reliable massive log processing.
rsyslog already supports Reliable Event Logging Protocol (RELP), and 0MQ options
for reliable massive log processing. This would just be one additional option
(and there's nothing wrong with supporting lots of options)
My logging system processed 18B lines of logs in October, it's handled 93K lines
of logs in a single second, and I've tested it up to 380K lines of logs per
second (effectivly gig-E wire speed), and others have used rsyslog in
environments where they have tested it to 1M lines of logs per second.
However, "reliable" is a relative term. reliability and performance tend to be
opposed and you have to make tradeoffs between the two.
