Monitoring an Azure environment can be a challenging task for even the most experienced and skilled team. Applications deployed on Azure are built on top of an architecture that is distributed and extremely dynamic. But all is not doom and gloom.

AWS CloudWatch Logs gives you full visibility into your AWS infrastructure, from individual workloads to the services that bind them. Monitoring these logs helps ensure their smooth and continued operation, ongoing stability, and performance. Integrating CloudWatch Logs with LogDNA makes it easier to parse, search, and analyze AWS logs in order to detect anomalies and troubleshoot problems faster.
Logs Monitoring plays an important role in analyzing, troubleshooting and alerting on problems. Organizations have lots of data in logs that should be mined to get valuable insights on users, applications and systems behavior. Real time alerting from logs monitoring does help in identifying the problems early. It also provides security related insights when someone is trying to break into your organization.

They constitute a gold mine of useful information and actionable insights if properly stored, managed, and analyzed.
