Description: The analysis of logs and metrics is fundamental for improving the performance of computer systems. This process involves the collection and evaluation of data generated by applications and servers, allowing administrators to identify bottlenecks, errors, and anomalous behaviors. Observability, which refers to the ability to measure and understand the internal state of a system from its external outputs, plays a crucial role in this analysis. Through logging tools, significant events occurring within a system can be recorded, while metrics provide quantitative information about performance, such as response times and error rates. Together, these practices enable development and operations teams to make informed decisions to optimize infrastructure and enhance the user experience. Implementing a proactive approach to log and metric analysis not only helps to resolve existing issues but also allows for anticipating future challenges, thus ensuring a more efficient and reliable operation of technology systems.
