Logs in Azure Database for PostgreSQL - Flexible Server

  • Чланак

APPLIES TO: Azure Database for PostgreSQL - Flexible Server

Azure Database for PostgreSQL flexible server allows you to configure and access Postgres' standard logs. The logs can be used to identify, troubleshoot, and repair configuration errors and suboptimal performance. Logging information you can configure and access includes errors, query information, autovacuum records, connections, and checkpoints. (Access to transaction logs is not available).

Audit logging is made available through a Postgres extension, pgaudit. To learn more, visit the auditing concepts article.

Configure logging

You can configure Postgres standard logging on your server using the logging server parameters. To learn more about Postgres log parameters, visit the When To Log and What To Log sections of the Postgres documentation. Most, but not all, Postgres logging parameters are available to configure in Azure Database for PostgreSQL flexible server.

To learn how to configure parameters in Azure Database for PostgreSQL flexible server, see the portal documentation or the CLI documentation.

Note

Configuring a high volume of logs, for example statement logging, can add significant performance overhead.

Accessing logs

Azure Database for PostgreSQL flexible server is integrated with Azure Monitor diagnostic settings. Diagnostic settings allows you to send your Azure Database for PostgreSQL flexible server logs in JSON format to Azure Monitor Logs for analytics and alerting, Event Hubs for streaming, and Azure Storage for archiving.

Data retention policy and pricing

If you select Event Hubs or a Storage account, you can specify a retention policy. This policy deletes data that is older than a selected time period. If you specify Log Analytics, the retention policy depends on the selected pricing tier. Logs ingested into your Log Analytics workspace can be retained at no charge for up to first 31 days. Logs retained beyond these no-charge periods will be charged for each GB of data retained for a month (pro-rated daily). For more details, refer Azure Monitor pricing.
