In our application ,certain logs are cached on redis.

We Need to capture those logs from the redis cache which is hosted as a PAAS in azure.

Is that possible for capturing the Redis PAAS logs.

Awaiting response

Have a look at [Logstash](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/logstash/current/getting-started-with-logstash.html) and its [redis input module](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/logstash/current/plugins-inputs-redis.html).

Thanks for your quick response Christian.

I've gone through the link which you've shared and got some info about redis input module.

I would like to know whether its possible on a PAAS. Because we are using the redis which is provided by the Azure in a PAAS environment.

Its not a standalone instance. Please assist

I do not know. Have never used Redis hosted by Azure. Why don't you try and see if it works?
