[Gen 2]{: tag-purple}
{{site.data.keyword.messagehub}} can be used to stream data from {{site.data.keyword.logs_full}} to other corporate tools, such as Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) tools. {: shortdesc}
When you enable streaming on an {{site.data.keyword.logs_full}} instance, you configure {{site.data.keyword.logs_full}} to send data to an {{site.data.keyword.messagehub}} instance. Then, you can configure Kafka Connect to consume the data and forward it to your destination tool. After the data is persisted within {{site.data.keyword.messagehub}}, you can configure any application, or service to create a subscription and take action on log data that is streamed.
