Structured logs that help on-call, not hoard disk

  • Laravel
  • PHP
  • DevOps

Correlation IDs, levels, and context fields beat walls of printf debugging.

Log one line per request milestone with a shared correlation ID across jobs and HTTP. JSON or key=value formats parse cleanly in your aggregator.

Reserve error for actionable failures; noisy info logs in hot paths become expensive and hide real incidents.

Sample debug-level logs in production if you must—full verbosity rarely belongs on every instance.
