Modern applications generate massive volumes of logs across servers, containers, and services. Without a unified view, critical insights get buried as these logs remain scattered and unstructured, making it difficult to detect issues, troubleshoot problems, or identify security threats in real time.
Applications Manager delivers powerful, built-in application log monitoring capabilities to keep your apps running smoothly and help you resolve issues quickly. With the AppLogs monitoring feature, raw, unstructured log data is transformed into clear, organized insights—giving you better visibility into performance, uptime, and security. Whether you're fixing errors, validating release outcomes, or identifying slow spots in your system, you have full control over your logs in a centralized view. This streamlined approach lets you pinpoint problems faster and make confident decisions—all without switching between tools.
Discover exactly what you are looking for in your long, never-ending lines of logs and instantly troubleshoot issues with ease. Leverage the power of AppLog's user-friendly keyword searches, structured field filters, and advanced queries to narrow down results quickly and explore log data with accuracy. Stop manually scanning raw log files and move straight to the events, errors, and patterns that explain what’s happening inside the applications with clear visibility.
Start monitoring without delay with built-in support for over 50 commonly used log formats. Avoid spending time defining log formats from scratch and configuration overhead while gaining structured visibility into widely used application and service logs. Whether your stack uses Apache, Nginx, ActiveMQ, or other common services, Applications Manager understands the structure of widely used logs—letting you focus on insights instead of spending time on format configuration. Popular predefined logs supported in AppLogs monitoring include:
When it comes to tracking various application logs, not all log formats are standard and not all applications fit a predefined pattern. Applications Manager's AppLogs monitoring helps you adapt to diverse log formats by letting you define custom log types to structure, parse, and monitor logs generated by in-house, legacy, or proprietary applications, ensuring consistent visibility across diverse environments. Simply specify custom log patterns and map them to specific outputs based on the application generating them. This lets you parse, organize, and monitor logs from any source — whether it's a modern app or an old-school system — ensuring you always have clear, consistent insight into what’s happening across your entire tech environment.
Seamlessly receive logs from on-premises systems, apps, containers, and servers—automatically parsing them to extract critical fields and enhance data for advanced insights. Set up log profiles to define exactly what gets captured, where it originates, and which servers, directories, or applications should be monitored. Select from predefined or custom log types, specify file paths, and configure retrieval rules, retention policies, and link these profiles directly to monitored resources in Applications Manager. This ensures logs remain contextually relevant, targeted, and easy to manage, allowing teams to troubleshoot issues efficiently without jumping between tools or missing visibility across the entire technology stack.
To sum it up all, the Applications Manager's AppLog monitoring is designed for teams that value clear insights over clutter. Instead of overwhelming you with unnecessary features, it cuts through the noise by letting you search, organize, and make sense of logs quickly—without adding extra steps or distractions. Everything you need is right where your monitoring data already exists.
Applications Manager's AppLogs monitoring enables you to collect, search, and analyze application logs from monitored servers. You can run keyword-based searches, apply structured fields, and execute advanced queries to quickly narrow down log results and identify relevant events.
Applications Manager supports more than 50 predefined log types, including commonly used formats such as Apache access logs, Nginx logs, ActiveMQ logs, and other widely adopted application and service logs. These predefined types help you start monitoring without manual format configuration.
Yes. Applications Manager allows you to define custom log types for applications that generate proprietary or non-standard log formats. You can configure how these logs are structured and parsed to ensure consistent visibility across your environment.
Absolutely. Log profiles allow you to selectively define the log sources of applications running in each monitored servers in Applications Manager. This ensures that only relevant logs are collected, helping you maintain focused and efficient monitoring.
No. With predefined log types and structured log profiles, you can begin collecting and searching logs quickly without extensive manual setup.
DevOps engineers, SREs, IT operations teams, and application support teams benefit from centralized log visibility that simplifies troubleshooting and accelerates root cause identification.
By making logs searchable, structured, and tied to monitored resources, Applications Manager's AppLogs monitoring helps teams move from raw log data to actionable insights faster—reducing the time spent scanning files and improving incident response efficiency.
It allows us to track crucial metrics such as response times, resource utilization, error rates, and transaction performance. The real-time monitoring alerts promptly notify us of any issues or anomalies, enabling us to take immediate action.
