As a cloud-based logging service, Strata Logging Service requires a robust connection so that log records do not get lost and every network event is accounted for.
With the monitoring capabilities of the Strata Logging Service app, you can observe whether your devices are still sending logs to Strata Logging Service as well as view finer details about log transmission, such as storage, latency, ingestion, and log forwarding status. Closely monitoring this information can help you react faster to system outages and even anticipate their occurrence.
Every 5 minutes, the Strata Logging Service app collects a variety of metrics to give you a complete picture of your logging infrastructure. The metrics that the app collects include
  • Incoming log rate per instance, firewall, and log type
  • Incoming log bytes per instance, firewall, and log type
  • Storage used per instance, firewall, and log type
  • Forwarded logs per instance and destination
  • Log latency between the firewall and Strata Logging Service
  • Log latency between the firewall and log forwarding destinations
The app collects the following event data in real-time:
  • Firewall connected or disconnected
  • Service available or unavailable
If you are using cloud-managed Next-Generation Firewalls with AIOps for NGFW, you can view alerts about your Strata Logging Service instance to keep you aware of the latest issues affecting it and actions you can take to address them.
