We are very excited to announce a new capability for our Amazon S3 sources. Until recently, the only method Sumo Logic used for discovering new data in an S3 bucket was periodic polling. However, with our new notification-based approach, users can now configure S3 sources such that Sumo Logic is notified immediately (via AWS SNS) whenever a new item is added to an S3 bucket, eliminating the need to wait for new objects to be discovered via periodic polling.

We’re excited to announce the general availability of our new On-Prem, Self-Hosted, and Multi-Cloud logging platforms. Our customers will have the capability to log data in their infrastructure of choice. Whether across multiple public/private clouds or within a customer’s own data center, logs can be viewed through a unified interface while addressing any data locality and performance requirements.

Recently, we held a webinar where Chris Nguyen, our CEO and Co-Founder and Norman Hsieh, our Head of Business Development talked about the ever increasing production of data, the shift from monitoring to observability, and the evolution of production infrastructure into multi-cloud. LogDNA is uniquely positioned to have enabled thousands of customers to gain deep insights into their evolving DevOps infrastructure.

As any business running microservices, containerized applications, networking devices, or multiple servers knows, it’s important to get a centralized log management system that fits your company’s unique needs. The best log management solution should empower your business to gain insights, resolve production issues quickly, streamline your DevOps and IT teams, and allow you to work more efficiently.

In organizations which uses a Windows server environment, the vast majority of authentication and access control processes are managed within Active Directory. As a central and critical component for managing organizational IT resources, Active Directory logs contain valuable information which must be closely monitored and analyzed.

What is log monitoring and log analysis? Both are crucial parts of log management and related in many capacities, but by definition, the two actually have different core meanings.

Addressing compliance requirements for monitoring and logging can be a challenge for any organization no matter how experienced or skilled the people responsible are. Compliance requirements are often not well understood by technical teams and there is not much instruction on how to comply with a compliance program. In this article, we’ll discuss what some of these new compliance programs mean, why they are important, and how you can comply with your logging and monitoring system.
