Getting started with Monium.Logs

Monium.Logs is a distributed and highly available system for storing, searching, visualizing, and analyzing logs. The system forms part of the Monium platform and uses its basic components, such as access management, data model, and unified interface.

Log deliveryLog delivery

In Monium, log delivery is configured similarly to other types of telemetry. If you are new to Yandex Cloud or have no application from which to test sending logs, start with the general Getting started with Monium section: it describes the basics of how to set up your environment and send data with the help of Otel Collector.

You also can set up log transfer through Fluent Bit or directly from the app.

If you already have a Yandex Cloud account, an application of your own, and prior experience with telemetry, configure log delivery as detailed below.
