  title: Fastly Real-Time Logging Logging Syslog API
  description: The Fastly Real-Time Logging API allows developers to configure and manage logging endpoints that receive streamed log data from Fastly's edge network. Fastly supports logging to a variety of formats and platforms including syslog, Amazon S3, Google Cloud Storage, BigQuery, Datadog, Splunk, Elasticsearch, and many other providers. Developers can create, update, and delete logging configurations per service version, controlling the format, placement, and conditions under which log entries are generated.
