Simple Log Service:Create an instance

Last Updated:Dec 29, 2023

This topic describes how to create a Full-stack Observability instance.

Prerequisites

  • A project is created. For more information, see Create a project.

  • A RAM user is created. We recommend that you create an instance by using the RAM user. The RAM user must have the following permissions. For more information, see Create a custom policy and Grant permissions to a RAM user.

    {
      "Version": "1",
      "Statement": [
        {
          "Action": [
            "ram:PassRole",
            "ram:GetRole",
            "ram:ListRoles"
          ],
          "Resource": "*",
          "Effect": "Allow"
        }
      ]
    }

Procedure

  1. Log on to the Simple Log Service console.

  2. In the Log Application section, click Full-stack Observability.

  3. On the Simple Log Service Full-stack Observability page, click Create Instance.

  4. In the Create Instance dialog box, configure the parameters and click Enable. The following table describes the parameters.

    Parameter

    Description

    Instance ID

    The ID of the Full-stack Observability instance.

    Instance Name

    The name of the Full-stack Observability instance.

    Description

    The description of the Full-stack Observability instance.

    Project

    The project that you want to use. After observable data is collected to Simple Log Service, Simple Log Service automatically creates the required assets for the data in the project, such as Logstores, Metricstores, and dashboards.

    Full-stack Observability

    The data that you want to collect to the Full-stack Observability application. The application is integrated with the Trace and Full-stack Monitoring applications of Simple Log Service.

    • The Trace application is based on OpenTelemetry. You can use Trace to collect, store, analyze, and visualize trace data. You can also configure alert rules for trace data. For more information, see Trace.

    • The Full-stack Monitoring application is an end-to-end solution that is used to monitor IT system components, such as hosts, Kubernetes clusters, middleware, databases, and networks. The application allows you to collect, store, analyze, and visualize data. You can also configure alert rules for the data. For more information, see Full-stack Monitoring.
