CDN:Real-time log delivery

更新時間:Mar 07, 2024

The real-time log delivery feature allows you to collect logs of accelerated domain names in a region in real time and deliver the logs to Simple Log Service for analysis. This helps you monitor your business and identify service issues efficiently.

Prerequisites

Simple Log Service is activated.

Concepts

  • Transfer the log data of a domain name to another Logstore: For example, Domain A is associated with Logstore 1 but the log data of Domain A must be transferred to Logstore 2. Before you associate Domain A with Logstore 2, the log data of Domain A is delivered to Logstore 1. After you associate Domain A with Logstore 2, the existing log data of Domain A is transferred from Logstore 1 to Logstore 2. The new log data is directly delivered to Logstore 2. During this process, log delivery is not interrupted.

    Important

    Before you transfer Domain A from Account 1 to Account 2, you must disable real-time log delivery for Domain A in Account 1. After you transfer Domain A to Account 2, you can enable real-time log delivery for Domain A in Account 2. If you do not perform the preceding operations, real-time logs are still delivered to Account 1. This incurs charges to Account 1.

  • Disable or enable real-time log delivery: You can disable or enable real-time log delivery, disable the delivery of log data to a specific Logstore, and disable the delivery of log data of a specific domain name to Simple Log Service. In the preceding scenarios, the domain name remains associated with the Logstore.

  • Query log data: You can query data within a specific period of time, all data of a specific visitor, or data delivered to a specific Logstore.

  2. In the left-side navigation pane, choose Logs > Real-time Logs.
