Understanding Logging: Containers & Microservices

Today we're taking a look at the concept of Logging in microservice container environments.
I go over two concepts, standardised and centralised logging.
How to keep your codebase simple by logging to stdout.
How to gather all the logs from a distributed system and bring it to a central place with FluentD.
This is a conceptual video demonstrating the concepts we'll need in this series.
In a future video, we'll dive into FluentD, the ELK + EFK stack and deploying all this stuff on Kubernetes.

This is the 3rd time that I've found your channel when looking for something IT/tech related. I love your content. Thank you very much @That DevOps Guy for taking the time and putting this stuff together. You've made a subscriber out of me. I know this video is a bit but IMO you're doing a great job my friend and keep up the great work.

[RonnyBadilla]

Just discovered your channel and I’m impressed, I have seen just two videos and both helped me to have a better understanding.
Keep it up, you got a new subscriber!

[Jakub-yuvy]

Great video ! I really like the way you present. I am looking forward to watching next part

[Being_Joe]

It is like you have been reading my "things to figure out" list and making videos off of them. Looking forward to the rest of this series.

You are rock in docker and kubernetes, I have not seen any other better tutorials like this

[ruchk]

Very useful and simple way to explain...thank you!

Your video are very informative, keep posting

[amitpadgaonkar]

I love your channel. It is truly underrated in terms of number of subscribers.

One quick question. Can you please the system that you are using? the processor, memory, desktop brand etc. I want to buy the same system for me.

[imanhpr]

thank you very much this video helped me a lot.

Arch btw! Great video as always. I am wondering if you would be able to do a video on SocketIO/WS generally on k8s, I initially ran into some roadblocks with Nginx ingress, Redis, and setting affinity correctly. Fixed it now - but others may be curious.

Everything 'seemed' to work fine on one instance, but as soon as another ws server instance was running; k8s' affinity would default to selecting another instance on next connection resulting in 400 errors with Unknown Session ID

All those fast moving backgrounds hurt my eyes.

Thanks for your video, I need to gather all container logs... in that case.. what are the parameter needs to be added in the production compose files. please help me

It nice..can you cover a video on sending fluentd logs to cloudwatch ? So developer can watch app logs from there to see if pod crashed for any reason

[ElCucuy]

you can send log remotely using json driver or fluentd, etc drivers.

Hi sir, I am using Rancher to maintain my all applications in cluster & their logs are stored into container path var/logs/app1.log using log4j file appender. So is it possible to download that logs from container to my local system?

[jafarsadique]

Please make a detail video on collect containers using fluent-bit and redirect to azure log analytics
