How do you design a log aggregation and observability platform?
Updated May 6, 2026
Short answer
A log platform collects, indexes, and analyzes logs from distributed systems.
Deep explanation
Logs are shipped via agents (Fluentd/Filebeat) to centralized storage like Elasticsearch. Metrics go to Prometheus, traces to Jaeger. Kibana/Grafana provides visualization. Correlation IDs link logs across services.
