There are many possibilities so:-

1) Why? Who is going to read them? Who is going to use them and for what?
2) Now much data are talking about when you say huge. To some of us here, 1Million messages a day is the norm while to others, 1K per day is a busy day.

Every time you reinvent the wheel the more square it gets (anon). If in doubt think and investigate before you ask silly questions.

And 3) What exactly is it you want to log?

If this is business data you are logging, then probably the database is the answer, to enable lookups.

If system events, then Syslog would be a great place to save it. Broker provides built-in methods for writing to Syslog (ie. MbService.logInformation).

If you don't want to use a database or Syslog, you could use a flat file. (Java FileWriter). If you don't want to manage disk space issues, use log4j's FileAppender.

Of course, I would use log4j directly and would not use the Support pac for reasons previously addressed on this forum. Others have differing opinions, which is fine by me.
