Well, the logger was just a generalized demo of the concept. I do the same
thing for connections to cassandra, redis, etc. In the specific case of the
logger, the initialization sets up a zeromq stream for the logs and
specific messages, and also for stats and things.

Something I've been looking for is a guide of bad practices. There are a
bunch about good practices and conventions, but when straying from those,
you don't want to come to the realization later on that... "I've made a
huge mistake..."
