Methods, devices and computer program products facilitate the storage, access and management of log files that are associated with particular client devices. The log files provide a record of user or client device activities that are periodically sent to a data backup center. A dedicated log file server facilitates the processing and storage of an increasingly large number of log files that are generated by new and existing client devices. A storage server pre-processes the received log files to facilitate the processing and storage of the log files by the log file server.
