Recommendations to others considering Apache log4j:
Yes, I highly recommend using log4j for logging. The architecture of this framework is pretty easy to understand. It can become the central point of the whole application and logs can be written or directed to a variety of destinations (files, Relational database management systems, non-SQL DBS like elastic, queueing(rabbitmq). It comes with a different level for the logs which can be changed at runtime very easily. We can also manipulate the log format easily. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
