I built a monitoring web application that reads from server log files. After that, business logic pull other information by using a geolocalization service. Do I should consider both log file and geolocalization database as my data layer?

@slebetman thank you for you answer. My issue is to consider geolocation db as data layer cause I don't handle it directly..Do you think this is not a problem? – Lorenzo Nov 19 '17 at 13:30

Yes both of these belong in the Data Layer.
See the Wikipedia page on Data access layer.
A data access layer (DAL) in computer software, is a layer of a computer program which provides simplified access to data stored in persistent storage of some kind.
Although the persistent storage is usually a relational database it doesn't have to be.
