Logging for public sector: How to make the most of your mission-critical data

Public sector organizations are increasingly focusing on optimizing their log management due to heightened compliance requirements, recognizing logs as essential for mission-critical tasks, early issue detection, and problem resolution. However, managing logs is becoming more complex and costly, necessitating strategies like centralizing data onboarding, integrating logging with mission data, and employing automation for efficient data analysis. Organizations should also ensure historical data is both compliant and readily accessible, and break down information silos by unifying metrics, logs, and traces in a single observability solution. By establishing a robust logging foundation, these organizations can expand into application performance monitoring and advanced operations, enhancing their overall observability and decision-making capabilities.
