Logs Management Evolved: Introducing Federated Logs and No-Code Parsing

New Relic has introduced two new capabilities aimed at enhancing log management by addressing the challenges of data accessibility, compliance, and efficient parsing. The Federated Logs feature allows teams to process and query logs locally, maintaining data sovereignty while providing a unified view and eliminating the need for complex pipelines. This enables real-time troubleshooting and insights without context switching. Additionally, the no-code parsing capability democratizes log data management by allowing engineers to extract insights quickly without needing advanced technical skills. This feature uses a visual builder for log attribute extraction, real-time rule validation, and automated parsing rules, significantly reducing the time from raw logs to actionable insights. These innovations aim to break down data silos and empower engineers to focus on problem-solving rather than managing complex log configurations, representing a paradigm shift in operational efficiency and observability practices.
