Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I deployed a web application on DigitalOcean App Platform. The logs from the applications are sent by DigitalOcean to SolarWinds Papertrail. I use SolarWinds Papertrail to debug customer issues that occasionally occur and to monitor application health.

Pros and Cons

Easy to search through logs
Simple configuration
Reasonable pricing

Logs can only be archived to AWS S3 - I would like to store in alternative place
It's not super easy to download log archives

Return on Investment

Saves time when issues come up
