CloudHub Runtime Manager Integrate with SumoLogic
The goal of this presentation is to integrate Runtime Manager with SumoLogic when you are deploying your
applications to CloudHub.
● SumoLogic is a popular logging management tool. It provides log management and analytics services.
It provides real-time analytics to help rapidly identify and resolve potential issues. SumoLogic
customizable dashboards align teams by visualizing logs, metrics and performance data for full-stack
visibility and reliable delivery. It provides alerts and notification service if there’s an important event or
problem to fix.
● CloudHub runtime manager has a specific log retention policy. The platform stores logs of up to 100 MB
per application and per worker or for up to 30 days, whichever limit is hit first. Once this limit has been
reached, the oldest log information is deleted in chunks and is irretrievably lost.
Log information is normally very useful to investigate any issues that may have occurred at any point in time
in the past. The recommended approach is to implement of an independent log retention strategy to an
external logging system such as SumoLogic using a log appender in MuleSoft CloudHub.

Limitations?
● When you disable CloudHub logs:
○ Only the system logs are available in Runtime Manager.
○ System logs provide the status of your worker deployment and whether your application started correctly, but do
not provide application logs. For application worker logs, check the logging system for your application.
○ You cannot download application worker logs from the Applications > Logs page.
○ CloudHub warns you that logs are not available.
● You cannot forward system logs (mule_ee.log) to external logging solutions the same way as application logs.
