== Monitoring {ls} with {agent}
|
|
|
|
You can use {agent} to collect data about {ls} and ship it to the monitoring
|
|
cluster.
|
|
When you use {agent} collection, the monitoring agent remains
|
|
active even if the {ls} instance does not.
|
|
Plus you have the option to manage all of your monitoring agents from a central location in {fleet}.
|
|
|
|
{agent} gives you a single, unified way to add monitoring for logs, metrics, and other
|
|
types of data to a host. Each agent has a single policy you can update to add
|
|
integrations for new data sources, security protections, and more.
|
|
|
|
You can use {agent} to collect {ls} monitoring data on:
|
|
|
|
* <<dashboard-monitoring-with-elastic-agent,{ecloud} or self-managed dashboards>>. +
|
|
{agent} collects
|
|
monitoring data from your {ls} instance, sends it directly to your monitoring
|
|
cluster, and shows the data in {ls} dashboards.
|
|
{ls} dashboards include an extended range of metrics, including plugin
|
|
drilldowns, and plugin specific dashboards for the dissect filter, the grok filter, and the elasticsearch output.
|
|
* <<serverless-monitoring-with-elastic-agent,{ecloud} dashboards (serverless)>>. +
|
|
{agent} collects
|
|
monitoring data from your {ls} instance, sends it to
|
|
https://docs.elastic.co/serverless[Elastic serverless],
|
|
and shows the data in {ls} dashboards in https://docs.elastic.co/serverless/observability/what-is-observability-serverless[Elastic Observability].
|
|
{ls} dashboards include an extended range of metrics, including plugin
|
|
drilldowns, and plugin specific dashboards for the dissect filter, the grok filter, and the elasticsearch output.
|
|
* <<monitoring-with-elastic-agent,{stack} monitoring>>. +
|
|
Use the Elastic Stack monitoring features to gain insight into the health of {ls} instances running in your environment.
