Local Logging
Local logging is a software development practice where applications write log messages to local storage, such as files or system logs, for debugging, monitoring, and auditing purposes. It involves capturing events, errors, and informational data during runtime to help developers understand application behavior and diagnose issues. This is a fundamental aspect of observability in software systems.
Developers should use local logging to track application execution, identify bugs, and monitor performance in development and production environments. It is essential for debugging complex issues, auditing user actions, and ensuring system reliability, especially in scenarios where real-time remote monitoring is unavailable or as a fallback mechanism.
