Hi @vsoch. Thanks for creating the issue. I assume you are talking about our log-importer?
Actually it should be possible to run the script an any server that supports python 3. You can send the extracted tracking request to any Matomo server that is reachable using the --url option. It might also be needed to set the --token-auth param manually in this case, at the log impoter might not be able to determine the token_auth automatically when running on a different server.

Thank you for the speedy response! So what would be best practice to consistently upload new logs from S3 - running a server or something like lambda alongside a Kubernetes deployment to run the log importer? Something else?

Hi @vsoch, we don't have an established best practice for this specific use case. A lambda probably wouldn't work since there's a hard 15 minute run time limit (if I recall correctly). Can you launch a kubernetes job for this? Eg, when a log file is uploaded to S3 (if that is how you are using S3), launching a kubernetes job to download and import it. There are a lot of ways to accomplish this, it really depends on what you want and how your architecture is set up.

Ah, gotcha! Thank you for this discussion - we also have in mind to do a kubernetes job, and wanted to check if there was a suggested best practice first. I can come back here and comment after we get it working. But safe to close the issue, thanks again for your help!
