Overview

Logstash is a free, open-source data processing pipeline that ingests data such as logs and events from a multitude of sources. Logstash transforms log data and sends it to your backend service of choice.

By integrating logs with Dynatrace, you get intelligent observability and automatic root cause analysis for additional log and event data captured and processed by Logstash.

Use cases

  • Leverage any of the 50+ input plugins from Logstash to get logs and events from your application into Dynatrace where you can immediately benefit from Dynatrace AI-driven root cause analysis.
  • Quickly search, explore, and analyze log and event data from a multitude of sources.

The Dynatrace Logstash output plugin allows you to forward logs to Dynatrace for in-context analysis.

  • Get a Dynatrace API token with the Ingest Logs scope to integrate with Dynatrace generic log ingest API
  • Deploy Logstash
  • Use the Dynatrace Logstash output plugin to stream logs to Dynatrace cluster

Compatibility information
