Metrics: Numeric measurements. Metrics can include:
A numeric status at a moment in time (like CPU % used).
Aggregated measurements (like a count of events over a one-minute time, or a rate of events-per-minute).
Logs: Lines of text a system produces when certain code blocks get executed. Log data is usually unstructured , and therefore hard to parse in a systematic way. However, XpoLog Platform is equipped with automated log patterns for known systems data and has a very-friendly parsing language to work with. At the end, structured log data makes it easier and faster to search the data and derive events or metrics from the data.
Traces: Records of activity. Trace data describes what happens when a request is made by user or an application.
