• logging-service-server: main class to startup logging service api
• logging-service: main module contain all the service api and dao classes
• slf4j-rest-impl: implementation of slflog4j, that will talk to logging service API if enabled else do the normal Log4j
• log4j-rest-logging-service: Log4j appender for logging to Logging Service API
• service-client: service client to logging service api
