从内部部署站点登录Azure

Question

I have a .net application not hosted in Azure. I would love to be able to read it's log and traces from a centralized place. I thought immediately of Azure Blob Storage as a good place to do so.

When inside Azure, I am familiar with enabling logging in .cscfg file:

Microsoft.WindowsAzure.Plugins.Diagnostics.ConnectionString. 

But in that case, the application is NOT in Azure.

Is it possible ?... i mean without going against best practices...

If yes, how to do so ? If no, any other centralized logging and tracing system that you would recommend ?

Answer 1

不在Azure中存储日志，但我们在Azure中托管我们的应用程序并将我们的日志存储在Logentries.com中 - 优秀的免费套餐 ，出色的分析以及来自localhost / Azure /任何其他可以想象的互联网位置的工作。

Answer 2

I think it shouldn't be difficult to achieve this with AZ-Copy tool. It is resumable and resilient, IHMO with the right switches and as a scheduled task it can be a very robust solution for your purposes.

Going further into detail, I have the idea that it should be feasible to make use of that old-fashined 'archive' file attribute to keep track of what is pending to being uploaded, and with a simple command line delete what has already been uploaded.

Furthermore, in one hand, with SQL PolyBase one can afterwards make queries to the Azure Storage uploaded files as if they were on a Sql Table, or on the other hand, point Azure PowerBI to prepare a dashboard if necessary.

(In fact, I plan to do it myself when I have a bit of time for testing, I'll update this answer with my findings.)
