Observability in Next.js
How do y'all manage logging, monitors, and observability in general for your Next.js apps? I am looking for something that logs all incoming requests, the message etc, and also set up monitors based on it.

do no use vercel to export to somewhere else
+1 to Axiom it's great
I use axiom, and I like it but the vercel integration is bad
vercel only allow 1 line of logs to be added – so whenever something breaks and I looks up the logs, I only get to see one line of the error message
i think thats being fixed in the next few days
i dont think so..
i contacted axiom support and they said there's nothing they can do if vercel integration is being used
PostHog is pretty good haven't used it massivly just yet but heard some pretty amazing things about it: https://posthog.com/

PostHog is the only all-in-one platform for product analytics, feature flags, session replays, A/B testing, and surveys that's built for developers.
PostHog is good but it isn’t observability it’s analytics
That's very true my bad, would you every use these 2 tools together?
Yep I store high volume ephemeral data like individual request logs in axiom, and then long term persistent data like page views and button clicks in PostHog
Yeh awesome thank you not sure the best aproach going forward with this as well
we use posthog
posthog is great for client side stuff and client side observability; not server side
