Logging challenges for the microservices architecture
As we know, logging is very important for any application to debug and audit business metrics, because logs contain important information to analyze. So, logging is a process to write a file, and logs are streams of events coming from running applications on a server. There are a number of frameworks are available to implement logging on your application, such as Log4j, Logback, and SLF4J. There are very popular logging frameworks used in J2EE traditional applications.
In a J2EE application, most logs are written into the console or in a filesystem on your disk space, so, we have to take care with the disk space and we have to implement a shell script to recycle the log files after a particular amount of time to avoid logs filling up all the disk space. So, a best practice of log-handling for your application is to avoid unnecessary log writing in the production environment, because of the cost of disk I/O. The disk I/O can slow down your...
