Configure Log Aggregation

Implement centralized log collection, parsing, and querying with Loki/Promtail or ELK stack for operational visibility.

When to Use

• Consolidating logs from multiple services or hosts into a searchable system
• Replacing local log files with centralized, queryable log storage
• Correlating logs with metrics and traces for full observability
• Implementing structured logging with label extraction from unstructured logs
• Setting retention policies for log data based on storage and compliance needs
• Troubleshooting production incidents requiring log analysis across services
