Just started working on diagnostics in azure and I can't help expressing my happiness about the features it provides.
1) Errors and logs can be treated equally: Errors and traces and logs can all be logged as traces(advantage given below).
2) Tier wise tracing: You decide which layer should trace. Data layer , service layer Etc. This is done with Trace Switching.
3) Filter on Tier wise tracing: Filter what needs to be traced. Errors,Information,Warning ,etc.
4) Transfer logs/traces to storages periodically with the help of Azure Diagnostics library
5) Filter on Transfer : You decide what to Transfer (Errors,Information,Warning ,etc).
Easy to visualise architecture wise ! Easy to implement coding wise!
It is not over! This one is my favourite:
6) Runtime change of filtering and fetching: We usually put diagnostic related info in web.config. But by putting this in ServiceConfiguration.cscfg , we can trigger the changing event to reset the filtering and tracing.
Developers spend years amassing skills to become an architect but then they did not work on Azure!
