    Example: Little Johnny's server went down... but why? He tries to check the system's logfile but it's so big and disorganized... maybe he should have treated logs as a continuous event stream and timestamp each event to at least know what happened when. After a while, he discovers that the server went down due to a lack of memory, as it was holding a 20 Gb log file... guess it would be better to keep logs as an external service. Little Johnny then configures his environment to use the open-source Fluentd to centralize different log sources and then route the logfile to an external data warehouse. Next time, debugging production issues will be a way less traumatic experience.
