Enterprise Observability & Audit
Note: Core observability (Analytics Engine, basic traces, Logpush examples) is available in the open core.
The full production-grade compliance, SIEM integration, long-term immutable audit, and tenant-aware pipelines described here are part of the commercial Enterprise layer.
One of the biggest jumps from retail HOOX to Enterprise is moving from “some analytics” to regulator-grade, immutable, queryable audit trail.
Pillars
-
Workers Traces (automatic)
- End-to-end visibility across Service Bindings, DO RPC, Queues, Workflows, external fetches.
- No code changes needed for basic tracing.
-
Logpush (Enterprise strength)
- Push Workers Trace Events, HTTP requests, WAF events, Queue events, etc.
- Destination: R2 (primary), or external SIEM (SentinelOne, Splunk, etc.).
- One-click R2 setup + advanced options (custom fields, raw vs transformed headers, daily partitioning).
- High volume support on Enterprise.
-
Tail Workers
- Sample, filter, enrich, or redact logs in real time before they go to Logpush or storage.
- Example: add tenant context, hash sensitive fields, drop health checks.
-
R2 as Immutable Audit Store
- Combined with R2 Event Notifications → trigger Workflows for post-processing (indexing, compliance checks, retention policies).
- Jurisdiction controls for data residency.
- Lifecycle + Object Lock for immutability.
-
Analytics Engine + Dashboard
- Keep high-cardinality real-time metrics (latency, fills, risk events).
- Tenant-tagged datasets.
-
Workflows + Observability
- Every Workflow step can emit structured events.
- Workflow execution history is durable and auditable.
Example Logpush Job (R2)
Use the one-click flow or the API for automation in CLI/deploy.
Tail Worker Example (Tenant Enrichment + Redaction)
Compliance Use Cases
- Trade reconstruction: Pull all events for a
clientOrderId or traceId across Workers, DOs, and Queues from R2.
- Kill switch audit: Every activation + reason + affected positions logged immutably.
- Regulatory reports: Scheduled Workflow reads from R2 + D1, produces signed PDF via Browser Rendering, stores result + manifest in R2.
- Anomaly detection: Feed Logpush stream (or sampled Tail) into AI Gateway + Vectorize for real-time risk signals.
Retention & Cost
- R2 is dramatically cheaper than traditional logging at scale.
- Use lifecycle rules: hot (30d) → cold → delete or archive after N years.
- Enterprise customers often keep 7+ years for compliance.
Integration Points
- Existing
trackAnalytics in shared can be extended to also emit to the audit path.
- All new Workflows and DOs should emit structured
auditEvent payloads.
- Dashboard (Enterprise) should have “Audit Explorer” views querying R2 (via Worker or R2 SQL if available) + Analytics Engine.
