    • Error logging is a specific type of system logging that focuses on recording errors, exceptions, or abnormal events within a software application or system. System logging, in general, covers a broader range of events, including informational messages, warnings, and other operational data. Error logging is a subset of system logging that deals with issues and failures.
    • Error logging can assist with the following:
      • Debugging and troubleshooting: By providing detailed information about errors, it becomes easier to identify the root cause of a problem, reproduce the issue, and develop a fix for it.
      • Performance monitoring: Analyzing error logs can help identify performance bottlenecks or recurring issues that might impact an application or system's overall performance and efficiency.
      • Security analysis: Error logs can reveal attempts to exploit vulnerabilities or other security-related events that warrant further investigation.
      • Compliance and auditing: In some industries, maintaining error logs is necessary to comply with regulatory requirements or internal policies, ensuring systems operate securely and effectively.
      • System reliability and availability: Regularly monitoring and addressing errors can help improve a system's overall stability and uptime, ensuring that it is available and functioning as expected.
      • Continuous improvement: By identifying and resolving errors, developers can learn from mistakes, improve their codebase, and minimize the likelihood of similar issues.
