Abstract

A large-scale service utilizes service hosts that generate log files describing aspects of their operation. An indexing service obtains the log files from a log store and/or obtains log data directly from the service hosts. The indexing service also searches the log files for key values and other associated values. The indexing service utilizes a database service to store located key values and the other values in a log index. A user interface component provides functionality for searching the log index for key values and displaying the other values associated with the key values. An application programming interface (API) might also be utilized to query the log index for key values and to thereby obtain the other associated values.
