Damian speaks to Nick Blumhardt about structured logging. Trawling through logs is often painful, and it can be hard to discover exactly what events are related to what others. The problem is far worse with popular and highly trafficked sites. Nick talks about how to structure your logging to make discovery much easier, and he shows us how you can use some built-in features in ASP.NET Core to make things easier.
