What is Atatus Logs Monitoring?

With Atatus Log Monitoring, you can collect logs from your log files, servers, applications, networks, and security devices. A particular log message can be detected with ease and you can monitor multiple log files in multiple hosts.

To enable Log Monitoring for your applications, You should install the Atatus Infrastructure agent and enable the logs_enabled flag in your configuration file. You don’t have to copy or export log files since the agent is auto instrumented for capturing logs.
