Summary

The tutorial by Tola Ore-Aruwaji, a Developer Relations Engineer, guides users through the process of integrating log data from Microsoft Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) into Axiom for enhanced monitoring and analysis. It outlines the setup of a new AKS deployment, or the use of an existing one, to log data directly to Axiom, highlighting the benefits of extended data retention and comprehensive monitoring capabilities. The tutorial provides detailed instructions on creating a Kubernetes cluster in Azure, configuring a resource group, and setting up Axiom datasets and ingest tokens for authentication. It further explains how to use Filebeats for forwarding logs from Kubernetes clusters and how to apply configuration files using Azure command-line tools. Once set up, users can stream, query, and visualize their logs on Axiom, leveraging the Axiom Data Explorer and Axiom Processing Language (APL) for insights and alert configurations. The tutorial also encourages readers to explore further resources and support for any pricing or technical queries.
