Summary

That is it for this chapter. Logging and monitoring is a topic which you can tailor to your particular use case and environment, but I hope you have learned how easy it is to set up. Using software as a service, such as Datadog or Logmatic, is an excellent way to get up and running very quickly, and alerts integration with OpsGenie or PagerDuty will allow you to receive instant alerts whenever a problem may occur.
