Meet the new Hosted Collectors
A Hosted Collector is a Sumo Logic-managed Collector, hosted in AWS, that lets you send data to Sumo Logic without deploying an agent. We host the Collector and its Sources on our end — no need to install anything on a local system in your deployment.
With a single Hosted Collector, you can create and configure Sources to collect data from any number of Sources, for example:
- Cloud-to-Cloud collection from AWS, Azure, Google Cloud Platform, and more SaaS tools
- Send data directly to a Sumo Logic endpoint using your custom collection method
Data collection flow for S3 buckets and HTTP requests:
Just as Installed Collectors, you can monitor the activity of Hosted Collectors using the Status tab.
The maximum number of Collectors allowed per organization is 10,000.

FAQ
What is a Hosted Collector?
A Hosted Collector is a Collector that Sumo Logic hosts and manages in AWS, letting you send data to Sumo Logic without installing or maintaining an agent yourself.
How is a Hosted Collector different from an Installed Collector?
A Hosted Collector requires no local installation since Sumo Logic runs it for you, while an Installed Collector is deployed and maintained in your own environment.
How many Sources can a Hosted Collector have?
A single Hosted Collector can have any number of Sources, up to the organization-wide maximum of 10,000 Collectors.
Do I need to install anything to use a Hosted Collector?
No. Sumo Logic hosts the Collector and its Sources in AWS, so you don't need to install or maintain anything locally.
Can a Hosted Collector collect from multiple cloud platforms?
Yes. A single Hosted Collector can have Sources for AWS, Microsoft, Google Cloud Platform, and other SaaS and cloud-to-cloud integrations.
