    With the increasing number of requests and possibly errors, we needed a proper logging setup to debug and monitor the service. That’s why we chose bunyan to log insightful data in our application. These logs sit conveniently on our new logging pipeline running on EFK (or, Elasticsearch Fluentd Kibana) stack. While this deserves a separate blog post on its own, let’s take a brief look at how the logs travel from our application to the kibana dashboard.

    You can prevent your log files from getting too big by employing a log rotation solution that also handles cleaning up old logs. Even with this measure in place, it may be challenging to sift through the logs when you need to troubleshoot an issue (due to the sheer number of log files and entries and the distributed nature of most applications).
