Microservice Logging: Challenges, Advantages, and Handling Failures
One of the major developments in software design and delivery over the last few years has been a movement away from monolith applications towards microservices. One of the sticking points I’ve seen on numerous microservice applications is logging. There are some unique challenges with microservice logging that need to be addressed. In this article, we’ll look at how we can make logging in a microservice as painless as in a monolith.
Must-Have Features for Your Log Management Software
With so many choices available to us today, choosing log management software that’s just right for us has never been simpler. That is, if you know exactly what it is you are looking for. But for many users, the sheer amount of computer programs that perform the same tasks, and seem so similar(sometimes almost identical) to each other, can quickly become off-putting and confusing.
An Organized Workflow for Prototyping
In the world of agile there’s a demand to solve grey areas throughout the design process at lightning speed. Prototypes help the scrum team test ideas and refine them. Without prototypes, we can’t test ideas until the feature or product has been built which can be a recipe for disaster. It’s like running a marathon without training.

The Core Analysis Loop, or: Heatmaps Make Analysis Better
In this blog miniseries, I’m talking about how to think about doing data analysis, the Honeycomb way. In Part I, I talked about how heatmaps help us understand how data analysis works. In Part II, I’d like to broaden the perspective to include the subject of actually analyzing data.
Apache Kafka Tutorial - Use Cases & Challenges Logging at Scale
Organizations that handle logging at scale eventually run into the same problem: too many events are being generated, and logging components can’t keep up. Even with persistent queues and other mitigating features enabled, there’s simply not enough of a buffer between log generators and log ingesters to handle the volume of log lines coming in.
