Distributed systems logging
In a distributed system, where multiple services are running on different machines, logging becomes a critical aspect of system monitoring and debugging.
Logging is the process of recording events in a system. It provides a way to understand what’s happening inside your application, helping you identify patterns, detect anomalies, and troubleshoot issues. In a distributed system, logs from different services can provide a holistic view of the system’s behavior, making it easier to identify and resolve issues. Most large-scale systems use some form of centralized logging infrastructure, where logs are collected from different systems into a central logging repository. We will now delve into centralized logging.
Centralized logging
In a distributed system, logs are generated by different services running on different machines. These logs need to be collected and stored in a central location for easy access and analysis. This is known...
