Anypoint Runtime Manager v1.2 enables users to monitor applications running in cloud or on-premises environments using popular tools like Splunk and ELK. It provides a unified view of all applications no matter where they are running. The update also allows on-premises users to integrate Runtime Manager with third party monitoring tools like Splunk and ELK for similar monitoring features. The demo shows how to easily integrate with Splunk by enabling it in Runtime Manager and then tracking custom business events and transactions on Splunk dashboards and reports.

1. Anypoint Runtime Manager v1.2
– Monitoring servers and apps
with Splunk & ELK

3. • The August 2015 Update 2 of Anypoint Platform features v1.2 of
Anypoint Runtime Manager which enables users to monitor and
analyze applications running in the cloud or on-premises, in a
sandbox, staging or production environment with ease using popular
monitoring tools like Splunk and ELK. This gives the users a unified
view of all their applications, no matter where they are running.

4. Monitoring/analytics for On-Prem users
• Users of Anypoint Platform – iPaaS have been able to leverage Insight
(business events), logs, alerts, messaging, etc to monitor their
applications. With this release, on-prem users can leverage similar
features and functionality by integrating with third party monitoring
tools. This can be done seamlessly with our brand new out of the box
Plugins for Splunk & ELK, which simplifies the experience. Users can
send vital event notifications such as business events and API metrics,
to a system of their choice, which enables them to have a unified
monitoring view of their systems.

6. • The purpose of this demo is to display how you can configure and use
your third party integration systems, such as Splunk and ELK, with
ease. In the examples below we will step through how to integrate
with Splunk and create visualizations for a custom business
transaction or event.

7. Integrating with MuleSoft Plugin for Splunk
• MuleSoft enables users to seamlessly integrate into their Splunk
instances, using our Splunk plug-in, in 2 easy steps.
• Step 1: Login to your Anypoint Platform account and click on a server
that you’d like to configure. The server will need to be up and running
and have a deployed application.

8. • Step 2: Enable Splunk, enter your credentials, and click apply.

9. Tracking Custom Business Events on Splunk
• Once the user configures their system for Splunk in Anypoint
Runtime Manager, messages from an on-premises Mule runtime will
start populating in Splunk. The user has the flexibility to generate
reports, create standard and custom dashboards, track business
events, etc. In the screenshot below, the first graph shows a
visualization of the number of transactions/business events
generated per each custom Mule flow created by the customer. The
graph below it demonstrates the ability to pick a specific transaction
and monitor its path.
