Splunk open telemetry for GCS service and Apigee-X platform

Google Cloud Apigee
1

Hi,

Do we have any good references or documentation covering the integration of Splunk Open Telemetry with GCS services such as Private Service Connect, Managed Instance Group, and Regional and Global Load Balancers?

Additionally, I am looking for guidance on monitoring Apigee-X metrics and platform using Splunk Telemetry, just in case anyone has experienced it.

We already have a design for log management with Splunk and are trying to understand the best practices for monitoring the listed GCS services and the Apigee-X platform, including Apigee Metrics to Splunk Telemetry.

Hi @aramkrishna6 , thank you for sharing this question! It looks like it hasn’t received any responses yet, but we’re monitoring it and hope it gains the attention it deserves soon.

In the meantime, feel free to explore our Apigee Product Articles section for additional resources. Also, we’d love to have you join our upcoming no-cost virtual community event on November 14th—a great opportunity to dive into CI/CD for API development and connect with other Apigee enthusiasts.

Hello @aramkrishna6

Actually you have two way to connect Apigee to Splunk:

1.- Using the message logging policy via syslog: https://cloud.google.com/apigee/docs/api-platform/reference/policies/message-logging-policy

2.- Use the Integration connector: https://cloud.google.com/integration-connectors/docs/connectors/splunk/configure

Bonus: On the Splunk community you can find the implementation: https://community.splunk.com/t5/Getting-Data-In/How-to-connect-Apigee-Edge-to-Splunk/m-p/546923 and https://splunkbase.splunk.com/app/4836 you need to login on the web site to have the official documentation.
