The Art of Logging

Understanding logging is not an easy task. Developers often struggle with whether logging at certain points is meaningful, SREs are often helpless when facing production issues without logs, Ops need to spend more effort maintaining massive logs, and project managers often don't want to spend too much resources managing logs that have no actual business value.
