Kubernetes Logs Monitoring & Observability

Explore the nuances of Kubernetes Logging, offering a comprehensive approach to efficiently troubleshoot Kubernetes, trace issues, and optimize cluster performance.

Monitor Kubernetes logs across clusters, nodes, and workloads

Collect container stdout and stderr

Capture logs emitted to stdout and stderr by containers running in Kubernetes pods, including application output and runtime errors.

Aggregate pod and namespace logs

Organize logs by pod, namespace, workload, and label selectors to simplify troubleshooting in multi-tenant Kubernetes clusters.

Track pod lifecycle events

Ingest logs related to pod creation, restarts, crashes, and termination to analyze deployment and stability issues.

Monitor node-level system logs

Collect kubelet and container runtime logs from worker nodes to diagnose scheduling failures, image pull errors, and resource pressure.

Debug CrashLoopBackOff scenarios

Analyze container startup logs and failure messages to identify configuration errors and repeated pod restarts.

Correlate logs with Kubernetes metadata

Enrich log entries with Kubernetes context such as pod name, node, namespace, and deployment to speed up root cause analysis.

Observe control plane log signals

Capture logs from Kubernetes control plane components to investigate cluster-level issues and API server errors.

Handle high-volume cluster logging

Centralize Kubernetes logs from large clusters while maintaining query performance during traffic spikes and rolling deployments.

Logs Fragmented Across Pods and Nodes

Logs spread across short-lived pods and multiple nodes make centralized visibility difficult, and collecting them in one place reveals cluster-wide patterns.

Application and System Logs Do Not Connect

Without centralized ingestion, Kubernetes system logs and application logs remain isolated, and bringing them together provides clearer operational context.

High Volume Makes Searching Hard

Kubernetes environments generate massive log volume, and structured fields with filters help narrow down to the entries that matter most.

Surface Log Patterns With Context

Logs alone lack context, and correlating log activity with traces or related signals ties events back to pods, services, and request paths.

Real-Time Log Visibility for Active Clusters

Streaming logs from containers in real time helps spot shifts in behavior or emerging issues while they are happening.
