App Platform Log Forwarding to Self Hosted Log Server

Posted on July 2, 2022

I love the DO App Platform but would love to be able to forward logs to a self hosted server (Logstash, FluentD, Octopussy, etc). I see the ‘more coming soon’ but is there anywhere to vote on which should be added or to see whats coming?

Hey!

Quick update here, the App Platform now supports OpenSearch log forwarding.

This is now in public beta and it lets you forward runtime logs from your App Platform apps to an OpenSearch cluster, where you can analyze and query your app’s logs using OpenSearch’s APIs and dashboards.

Hi there,

You should actually be able to do that already. Currently, App Platform supports log forwarding to Papertrail, Datadog, and Logtail.

To do that, you can follow the steps here:

Hope that this helps!

Best,

Bobby

Can we forward logs to Axiom.co? Maybe a way to use their Elasticsearch support? https://axiom.co/docs/send-data/elasticsearch-bulk-api

or Syslog server? https://axiom.co/docs/send-data/syslog-proxy

Thanks
