How Logs, Traces, and Metrics Differ—and Why It Matters

Logs, tracing, and metrics each serve distinct monitoring goals—logs capture discrete events for debugging and audit, traces map request flows to pinpoint performance bottlenecks, and metrics provide time‑series health data; understanding their differences and integrating tools like ELK, OpenTelemetry, Prometheus, and Grafana enables robust observability.
