     Sure! Wouldn't be great if all logs were in the same place? (You'd still need domain experience of course!)

     At an online company with Windows servers I know of, they used to use remote desktop to connect to the Windows servers, that each had a public IP address, to get the logs from that server.

     All 12,000 of them.

     Good times :-)

     @StompyRobot ...pretty sure they just needed someone to look at the logs.

     You need observability that can capture everything, store everything, join everything, and doesn't charge you through the nose.

     Me, being brought into a multi-vendor multi-day P1 incident because I’m ~good at Windows~:

     “Has anyone looked at the Windows logs?”

     Narrator: They had not looked at the Windows logs.

     Post-credits scene: The error was in the Windows logs.
