Abstract
The disclosed embodiments provide a system for performing unified error monitoring, alerting, and debugging of distributed systems. During operation, the system receives logs of activity within a distributed system over event streams in a distributed streaming platform. Upon identifying an error in the received logs, the system collects, from the event streams, log entries generated within a time window of the error into a contextual log associated with the error. The system then outputs an alert containing metadata for accessing the contextual log.
