Vostok.Logging is a set of libraries providing structured logging for .NET applications, much like Serilog, but tightly integrated into Vostok ecosystem.
Guiding design principles
Logging system should not be able to significantly impact application health or performance.
Guarantees section covers this topic in greater detail.
Configuration is done in code.
Configuring and composing loggers in code is preferable to clumsy XML files. See Configuration section for an in-depth discussion.
Extensibility is valued.
The libraries are designed in a way that encourages creating custom implementations of logs and decorators.
Performance is of essence.
Implementations go to great lengths to provide a throughput level sufficient for applications handling tens or even hundreds of thousands of requests per second.
Features
Structured logging
Log events contain key-value properties which are later used for querying the log data or rendering it to text.
