Logs maintenance tool/gem needed

[Ruby Student]

Our UNIX environment is made up of couple hundred servers (AIX), with
hundreds of logs.
We have a simple ruby script running from the cron that uses a
property file to maintain these logs.
I was wondering if there is a tool/gem for logs management that has
been time-tested, and which we could use.
We are currently running ruby 1.8.6.

Thank you

why aren't you using syslog & newsyslog?

`man newsyslog`
