Centralized Logging

Summary

Shipping logs from all your servers/containers to one searchable place (e.g. Datadog, ELK stack, CloudWatch Logs) instead of SSH-ing into individual machines to read log files.

How to Learn This

1Ship a Node app's logs to a centralized logging service, even a free-tier one.
2Practice searching and filtering logs by request ID or error type.
3Understand why this becomes essential once you run more than one server instance.
