Logs & Telemetry Documentation

Better Stack is fast, affordable log management for your DigitalOcean apps. Forward your logs in minutes and find issues fast, before your users notice.

<h1 id="debug-issues-in-seconds">Debug issues in seconds</h1>
<p>Every log is parsed into a structured event the moment it arrives, so you can filter by error, request path, or any attribute with a single click. There's no query language to learn. Search in Live tail, build queries with drag-and-drop, or reach for SQL to explore logs in more depth. Search billions of log lines in seconds, with no scrolling through raw text.</p>
<h1 id="dashboards-and-metrics-from-your-logs">Dashboards and metrics from your logs</h1>
<p>Chart request rates, error counts, latency, or any other field from your logs. Build dashboards with a drag-and-drop builder, or define charts using SQL and PromQL. Metrics come straight from the logs you're already sending, so there's nothing extra to instrument.</p>
<h1 id="catch-issues-before-your-users-do">Catch issues before your users do</h1>
<p>Alert on error rates, rising latency, events that stop arriving, or any pattern in your logs. Automated anomaly detection catches unusual spikes and drops on its own, without the need to set any thresholds. Get notified instantly in Slack or by e-mail.</p>
<h1 id="scale-your-apps-not-your-bill">Scale your apps, not your bill</h1>
<p>Keep your logs longer without paying enterprise prices. No cold storage, no rehydrating, and queries stay fast however far back you look.</p>
<h1 id="security-and-compliance">Security and compliance</h1>
<p>Your data is encrypted in transit and at rest, hosted in ISO/IEC 27001-certified data centers. Better Stack is SOC 2 Type II and GDPR compliant.</p>
