Estimate log volume from Application
Hi,
I would like to do an estimation of the logs volume generated from Applications to ingest. In order to Reserve a capacity considering some Application like AntiVirus, Data Base, ...
Is there a procedure to do that? Some calculator online?
thank you

HI Lgab_siem , there's online tools out there that will give you an estimation depending on the log sources. For example: https://siemsizingcalculator.logpoint.com/
If you want to monitor a custom built application, I would suggest to redirect the logs to disk and see the size of them over a 24 hour period...that should give you a good idea.

Lgab_siem So far the only thing I found is an estimation of how much data Azure AD creates per person. I have not seen anything else. Hopefully something will come along in the near future as that is a big ask of my customers as well.
