E-Books →Java Logging (MEAP 02)

Logging is the art of making things visible-and when your codebase crashes at 5PM Friday you'll want all the data you can get about your application! Java Logging introduces and expands the logging skills every developer needs to master. For newer coders, everything is explained from the ground up in clear, accessible language. For the old hands, this is a chance to catch up with the state of the art in tools and techniques, including Log4j2!
In Java Logging you'll learn:
Reading and analyzing log files
The key components of standard logging systems
Writing good and useful logging code
Integrating multiple logging tools into your workflow
Logging lets you monitor your software for unexpected behavior, spot slowdowns and areas for performance tuning, easily audit for compliance and-most important of all-makes it easier to debug when things go wrong. Your expert guide in Java Logging is Christian Grobmeier, logging veteran and current maintainer of Apache Log4j. Through stories of experience, hands-on examples, and important tips, Christian shows you how to create the kind of logs that you (and your colleagues) will be thankful for.
