Kasun, one thing I notice is that payload data are static. Basically when
we have webappName and resource path, we can look up everything else. (well
queustion is where, but that we should solve seperately).

I think we should not repeat that that information (e.g. dispaly name etc)
for every event.

Also I think we need information like how long the request took and when do
we received the request, details if there was any error.
