Round 14

Should we implement a centralized logging architecture with structured JSON logs and correlation IDs for our new e-commerce platform?

Our development team is building a new e-commerce platform that will handle high traffic volumes and sensitive customer data. The goal is to create a robust logging system that supports 24/7 operations, enables rapid incident investigation, and maintains compliance with data privacy regulations. However, we face constraints around development timeline, team expertise, and infrastructure costs. The logging approach must balance immediate operational needs with long-term maintainability, while avoiding vendor lock-in and ensuring logs can be analyzed across multiple services.
