compression¶

Selects whether omazuredce compresses the HTTP request body and which gzip compression trade-off it uses.

This parameter applies to omazuredce: Azure Monitor Logs Ingestion Output Module.

Name:: compression
Scope:: action
Type:: word
Default:: off
Required?:: no
Introduced:: 8.2604.1

Description¶

Set compression="off" to send the JSON batch uncompressed.

Set compression to one of these values to gzip-compress the JSON request body and send it with Content-Encoding: gzip:

speed: use zlib’s fastest compression level for lower CPU cost.
default: use zlib’s default compression level to balance CPU usage and compression ratio.
size: use zlib’s highest compression level to minimize transfer size at the cost of more CPU time.

omazuredce still applies a max_batch_bytes size check before sending the request, so enabling compression reduces network transfer size without changing the module’s batching semantics.

Action usage¶

action(type="omazuredce" compression="default" ...)

YAML usage¶

actions:
  - type: omazuredce
    compression: default
