$ cd monitoring
$ sudo docker-compose up -d- Static labels
Bounded values that explicitly state the system/environment make the logs much more readable and logical.
- Using dynamic labels sparringly
Too many label value combinations leads to too many streams. The penalties for that in Loki are a large index and small chunks in the store, can actually reduce performance.
- Bounding label values
Loki might have problems handling labels with infinite/unbounded values
- Making sure that Logs are in increasing time order per stream
For any single log stream, logs must always be sent in increasing time order. If a log is received with a timestamp older than the most recent log received for that stream, that log will be dropped.
