Logz.io has deepened its partnership with Hashicorp over the last few months. Recently, we announced our integration with their service mesh, Hashicorp Consul. Simultaneously, we have worked on and completed an integration with their infrastructure orchestrator (a.k.a, infrastructure-as-code or IAC), Terraform. IACs take manual configurations and treats them as, well, code (along with procedures, build guides, run books, etc.).
Observability is made up of metrics, logs, and traces. These pillars help us understand the behavior of applications under normal execution, which further accelerates identifying anomalies in case of application failure or deviation from normal execution. Logging is not about tracing each and every operation, it is about sensible, consistent, and machine-readable log messages that expose the application behavior.
