Simplified support for external log management systems
Valid from Pega Version 7.2.2
Simplified support for external log management systems such as ELK (Elasticsearch, Logstash, Kibana) makes it easier to implement an external log management system. An external log management system can improve access to system log files that help diagnose and debug issues by eliminating the need to download log files from each node in the cluster.
For information about configuring ELK, see Configuring ELK for log management.
For information about using Kibana to view log files, see Pega logs in Kibana.
