The Logging System

The IguanaX Logging system is architected for resiliency, performance, and scale. To understand the benefits, you should understand how it works.

The Logging system is made up of:

1. Journal File: All data is first committed to a single journal file before being saved into the component log files. Once the data is successfully saved in the log files, it can be removed from the journal file.

2. Log Files: Data is written from the journal file and stored in individual log files per component. All component log files are stored in a single Log Directory - see Log Directory Structure for how IguanaX stores its logs and enables fast searching.
