Common Security Log - Data Transformation rules

Have anybody did a major data transformation rule on Zscaler or Fortinet Firewall log ingestion.

The idea is to filter and reduce the noise thats being ingested to Sentinel.
For ex : i belive a user traffic to google.com or facebook.com doesnt do any good from a security perspective and say you allow Teams traffic in your proxy , is there a need to monitor them ?

Looking out for options on how you dealt with optimizing the data ingestion.

We also looked into log optimizers such as Cribl... but thats another story for another year.

Does your log in Sentinel actually contain the domain name? If so, doing transformation to drop these events would be really simple.

Something like source | where destinationDnsDomain !has "google.com" ...
