Can a single Syslog Log forwarder VM get logs from multiple Log Sources?
Hi, I have a scenario where I need to have a Syslog Log forwarding VM that could collect Logs from multiple sources and forward it to a Log Analytics Workspace. Is this possible in Azure?

Pending on how much data your sending. and from how many sources... if its a lot i would be scale setting the vm. Last i read one box can do close to 10k eps..
Here i a great link to to an arm template that does the scale set and everything else you need. For redhat and ubuntu.
