Nagios itself doesn't usually write the check result to the log if the
service is in a hard state and the state hasn't changed.  You can
configure it to do that, but for best performance I wouldn't recommend
it.

To store, process and graph performance data, you are probably best
off using PNP4Nagios http://docs.pnp4nagios.org/pnp-0.6/start .  It's
quite easy to extract data from the .rrd databases created by
PNP4Nagios using rrdexport if you need it in xml format or similar.

All the data continuously generated in your IT infrastructure contains a
definitive record of customers, application performance, security
threats, fraudulent activity and more. Splunk takes this data and makes
sense of it. Business sense. IT sense. Common sense.
