Message Logging and Sumologic

Google Cloud Apigee

We are logging through sumologic and right now we are using it for error scenarios (using java script approach). Following through the links -

https://community.apigee.com/articles/32286/logging-to-sumo-logic-using-javascript-and-http.html

But, to trace the successful transactions too we are thinking to implement a similar flow.

Message Logging i suppose is not supporting sumologic right now. I want to confirm that will java script based approach not be performance bottleneck as Message logging supports asynchronous logging after sending the response, but not in this case.

thanks,

No one can guarantee that the javascript based approach will not be a performance bottleneck. It depends. If you use the fire-and-forget approach, probably not. If your messages are relatively small and your concurrency is not too high, probably not.

If you have 10,000 requests per second, it might require further study.

The only way to know for sure how it will perform is to test it.

thanks any plan to integrate Sumologic with Message logging policy in future or java script based approach will continue.

Have you tried sending the log to SumoLogic using a syslog source? Apigee Message Logging Policy does support syslog dispatch
