The ABC company has an Anypoint Runtime Fabric on VMs/Bare Metal (RTF-VM) appliance installed on its own customer-hosted AWS infrastructure.
Mule applications are deployed to this RTF-VM appliance. As part of the company standards, the Mule application logs must be forwarded to an external log management tool (LMT).
Given the company's current setup and requirements, what is the most idiomatic (used for its intended purpose) way to send Mule application logs to the external LMT?
The most idiomatic way to send Mule application logs to an external log management tool (LMT) in an RTF-VM setup is to configure the out-of-the-box external log forwarder. This approach leverages the built-in capabilities and is intended for seamlessly forwarding logs to external systems without the need for additional manual installation or configuration of log-forwarding agents or custom settings in each Mule application.
A. In RTF-VM, install and configure the external LTM's log-forwarding agent https://docs.mulesoft.com/runtime-fabric/2.1/#external-log-forwarding
Mulesoft documentation: "Anypoint Runtime Fabric does not include external log forwarding. You are responsible for installing, configuring, and managing an external log forwarder."
