> The critical problem of the pattern-based log format is that it is very difficult to parse, search and view from a structural aspect. In some edge cases, we have to write complex Regex to parse this log. To be honest, I want to challenge this. The logs are very traditional things, I haven't seen which log framework put the JSON format output as a high priority thing. `Parsing log` in the logstash(or similar thing) is existing for a long time, and powerful enough. Also, what is the point to analyze SkyWalking agent's log? It nearly outputs nothing. FYI @kezhenxu94 @JaredTan95 and @apache/skywalking-committers , are any of you feel this is necessary? ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
