Troubleshoot Services Using Logs

Pulse enables you to analyze logs from services such as YARN, Kafka, Oozie, HDFS, Ranger, etc. It classifies logs by service, host, severity (Info, Warn, Error, Debug, etc.), and provides unified visibility across applications (jobs, queries, etc.), enabling you to detect issues, identify root causes, and troubleshoot more efficiently.

This capability enables you to:

• Centralize log analysis across applications or YARN workloads, HDFS, and Ranger.
• Monitor errors, warnings, and anomalies quickly for faster troubleshooting.
• Monitor system health and trends with interactive dashboards and histograms.
• Debug efficiently with contextual log grouping, filtering, and search.
• Strengthen observability and compliance with detailed HDFS and Ranger audit logs.

Key Capabilities

• Search logs efficiently: Find application, HDFS audit, and Ranger audit logs across your cluster for faster troubleshooting.
• Filter logs by context: Narrow results by service, host, severity level, etc.
• Visualize log patterns: Use histogram and dashboard views to spot anomalies and assess system health.
• Analyze detailed messages: Review complete log details, including source and host, for incident analysis.
• Export logs: Download logs for offline analysis, reporting, and long-term storage.
