Things you need to know about Logging before using any Logging Consulting company

What is Logging?

Logging is a software development practice in which application data about events, warnings and errors is being saved in an organized manner that allows for a better understanding of that system's operations and a quicker incidents response.

Why use Logging?

Some of the many reasons for using logging tools:

  • Receive detailed information about what is happening in your code, making it easier to identify and fix bugs.
  • Track changes to your code and understand how it is being used.
  • Logging tools can provide information about the performance of your code, helping you identify bottlenecks and optimize performance.
  • Logging tools can automatically report errors to you or a team, allowing for quick response to critical issues.
  • Logging can help you meet regulatory requirements for auditing and security.
  • Handle large amounts of data and easily integrate it into a centralized logging system, making it much more manageable to oversee logs across multiple servers and applications.
  • Logging can be done at different levels, such as debug, info, warning, error, and critical, so you can filter out or focus on specific types of events.
