SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill provides comprehensive, hands-on guidance to deploy, configure, and operate SAP Cloud Logging on SAP Business Technology Platform (BTP). It helps teams set up logging infrastructure across Cloud Foundry, Kyma, and Kubernetes runtimes, instrument with OpenTelemetry, and gain observable insights from OpenSearch dashboards while maintaining secure access with SAML authentication and certificate management.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • End-to-end guidance for provisioning and configuring Cloud Logging service plans (dev, standard, large) and for all ingestion methods (Cloud Foundry, Kyma, OpenTelemetry, JSON API).
  • Observability enablement through OTLP, OpenTelemetry, dashboards, and alerting to monitor applications and infrastructure.
  • Security & operations guidance for SAML integration, key rotation, certificate management, and troubleshooting ingestion or access issues.
  • Use Cases include setting up logging pipelines for CF/Kyma/K8s apps, validating ingestion workflows, and building monitoring dashboards.

Quick Start

Start by reviewing the central concepts of SAP Cloud Logging and then follow the quick-start steps to provision an instance, configure data ingestion paths, and verify dashboards. For example, ask the agent to summarize the recommended setup steps for a standard deployment.

FAQPage Schema
How do I configure SAP Cloud Logging on BTP for OpenTelemetry ingestion?

You can ingest OpenTelemetry data into SAP Cloud Logging by configuring OTLP pipelines that route traces and logs from your applications to the OpenSearch backend. This provides centralized observability for your workloads.

How do I set up logging pipelines for Kyma and Cloud Foundry applications?

You set up logging pipelines for Kyma and Cloud Foundry by provisioning a Cloud Logging service instance and configuring the runtime-specific ingestion methods. This routes application logs to OpenSearch for monitoring.

Does SAP Cloud Logging support SAML authentication for OpenSearch dashboards?

Yes, SAP Cloud Logging supports SAML authentication to secure access to OpenSearch dashboards. You configure SAML integration and manage certificates to ensure authorized users can safely view observability data.

What are the available service plans for SAP Cloud Logging on SAP BTP?

Available service plans for SAP Cloud Logging include dev, standard, and large. You select a plan during instance provisioning to match your environment's scale and data retention requirements.

Why is my Cloud Logging ingestion not working in Kubernetes?

Cloud Logging ingestion issues in Kubernetes often stem from misconfigured OTLP pipelines or incorrect service bindings. You use the provided troubleshooting guidance to validate workflows and diagnose access problems.
