Logs are created by developers for debugging purposes. Data within the log message can vary between developers, applications, vendors and systems. All of this data needs to be collected, aggregated and analysed in real time.

Our log management service helps to connect applications, servers, network and infrastructure into one single view that enables us to detect and resolve issues as fast as possible.
