Log Analytics

Overview

The Sumo Logic App for JFrog Container Registry automatically creates an account with Sumo Logic and sends it logs for analysis. Once an account is created through JFrog Container Registry, you can connect several instances to that same account. The Sumo Logic data analytics platform will, in turn, display pre-enabled dashboards which can be customized as needed. This enables you to access Sumo Logic’s premium operational analytics directly from JFrog Container Registry, letting you index and analyze both structured metrics data and unstructured log data together in real time. The Sumo Logic App for JFrog Container Registry provides you with a customizable dashboard showing a variety of analytics such as:
