# Sumo Logic Integration

With [Sumo Logic](https://www.sumologic.com/) connected to ilert, scheduled searches, analytics queries, or log-based triggers that detect anomalies (e.g., error spikes or suspicious activity) send technical alerts to on-call teams. These alerts initiate escalation flows, enabling fast investigation and resolution.
