Check Data Stream Logs

A Stream Host is an application that can either be installed as a Windows Service or as a Console Application. Stream Hosts enable Data Streams to run, and you can check any status updates, messages, or errors from the Stream Host directly from the Data Stream you are running.

It is recommended that you read the article listed below to improve your understanding of Stream Hosts and Data Streams.
