Hi Patrick!

Raw

answer.md

From the Agent docs (Ubuntu for example):

# Set the following parameters in /etc/datadog-agent/datadog.yaml:
logs_config:
  logs_dd_url: "agent-intake.logs.datadoghq.eu:443"

For reference, https://app.datadoghq.eu/account/settings#agent should help guide you through some configuration questions.

Finally, it's worth noting that a new version of the Agent will be released shortly (likely this week) that actually addresses and simplifies much of this. Going forward, there will be one option to rule them all: dd_site - but it's not released GA quite yet. :)

@phrawtzy thanks! that's clear.

Can you elaborate where the log data is stored? I mean if I send it to EU it's stored in EU?
Where's my log index stored? And can I mix both data from EU and US in the same index ?

If you send data to datadoghq.eu, then it gets stored in the EU. As for your second question, that's outside of my depth. Ping @NBParis for more insight. :)

Hello there,

The idea is that Datadog US and Datadog EU are two totally independent data stores.
All the data sent to an EU region is stored in our EU datastore and cannot be mixed with any data sent to the US region.

Currently you would need two different Datadog Accounts to have data stored in both US and EU regions and it would not be possible to see them both in the same account.

Let me know if that clarifies the situation.
Thanks,
Nils
