Offloading analytics to third-party systems
The event data that is generated and collected in your API Connect on-premises deployment can optionally be forwarded to external third-party systems for storage and analysis.
About this task
API Connect supports the offload of API analytics data to the following third-party systems: HTTP, Elasticsearch v7, Apache Kafka, OpenSearch, and Syslog. You can configure a custom certificate for connecting to the third-party target and define filters to refine data that will be stored.
You typically configure data offloading while deploying the Analytics subsystem, but this configuration can be changed after installation, and involves updating the analytics custom resource and a restart of the ingestion pod.
