### 1. Structured Logging

#### 1.1 JSON Log Format (Node.js)

**Script ejecutable:** [`scripts/nodejs/structured-logger.js`](scripts/nodejs/structured-logger.js)

Structured logger para Node.js usando Winston con formato JSON para centralized logging.

**Cuándo ejecutar:**
- Integración en aplicaciones Node.js

logger.info('User created', extra={
    'user_id': '12345',
    'trace_id': 'abc-123',
    'http_method': 'POST',
    'http_path': '/api/users',

# Filter by trace_id
{job="application"} | json | trace_id="abc123"

# Count errors
sum(count_over_time({job="application"} | json | level="error" [5m]))

# Rate of errors
rate({job="application"} | json | level="error" [5m])

# Top errors
topk(10, sum by (message) (count_over_time({job="application"} | json | level="error" [1h])))

# Logs by user
{job="application"} | json | user_id="12345"

# Logs in time range
{job="application"} [2024-01-15T10:00:00Z:2024-01-15T11:00:00Z]

# Aggregate by service
sum by (service) (count_over_time({job="application"} | json [5m]))

# Error rate per service
sum by (service) (rate({job="application"} | json | level="error" [5m]))
/
sum by (service) (rate({job="application"} | json [5m]))
```

### 5. Elasticsearch + Fluentd

### 6. Log Retention & Archival

**Script ejecutable:** [`scripts/python/log_archiver.py`](scripts/python/log_archiver.py)

Herramienta CLI para archivado y gestión de retención de logs con almacenamiento en S3.

**Cuándo ejecutar:**
- Archivado automático de logs antiguos
- Gestión de retención de logs
- Restauración de logs archivados

**Uso:**
```bash
cd scripts/python
pip install -r requirements.txt

# Archivar logs antiguos
python log_archiver.py archive \
  --s3-bucket my-logs-bucket \
  --log-dir /var/log/app \
  --retention-days 30

# Dry run (ver qué se archivaría)
python log_archiver.py archive \
  --s3-bucket my-logs-bucket \
  --log-dir /var/log/app \
  --retention-days 30 \
  --dry-run

# Restaurar logs archivados
python log_archiver.py restore \
  --s3-bucket my-logs-bucket \
  --date 2024-01-15 \
  --s3-prefix logs \
  --output-dir /tmp/restored
```

**Características:**
- ✅ Compresión automática (gzip)
- ✅ Upload a S3
- ✅ Restauración de logs archivados
- ✅ Dry-run mode
- ✅ Retención configurable

## 🎯 Mejores Prácticas

### 1. Log Levels

✅ **DO:**
- Use appropriate log levels (DEBUG, INFO, WARN, ERROR)
- Log at INFO for business events
- Log at ERROR for failures
- Include context in logs

❌ **DON'T:**
- Log everything at DEBUG
- Log sensitive data
- Log in tight loops
- Use unclear log messages

### 2. Structured Logging

✅ **DO:**
- Use JSON format
- Include timestamps
- Add correlation IDs
- Include request context

❌ **DON'T:**
- Use unstructured text
- Include PII without encryption
- Log without timestamps

### 3. Performance

✅ **DO:**
- Use async logging
- Batch log writes
- Limit log verbosity in production
- Use log sampling for high-volume

❌ **DON'T:**
- Block on log writes
- Log in performance-critical paths
- Log excessive data

## 🚨 Troubleshooting

### High Log Volume

1. Review log levels
2. Implement log sampling
3. Filter unnecessary logs
4. Archive old logs

### Missing Logs

1. Check log collection agents
2. Verify network connectivity
3. Check disk space
4. Review retention policies
