Log management method, log management system, and information processing apparatus
A log management method includes extracting, before deploying an application which compresses and outputs log information of the application, message format information concerning the log information from source code of the application, deploying the application, and outputting the log information in a form of a message based on the message format information when a device that is able to obtain the log information output from the deployed application obtains the log information.
1. A log management method comprising:
extracting, before deploying an application definition information defining specific descriptions for explaining execution results of the application and ways in which the execution results are tied to the specific descriptions, from source code of the application;
deploying the application in a first device;
associating, by the first device, the execution results with an identifier identifying the definition information instead of tying the specific descriptions when executing the application;
obtaining the execution results associated with the identifier by a second device that is to access log information of the application;
tying, by the second device, the obtained execution results to one of the specific descriptions on the basis of the way defined in the definition information that is separately obtained on the basis of the identifier associated with the obtained execution results; and
accessing, by the second device, the obtained execution results tied to the one of the specific descriptions as the log information of the application.
2. A log management system comprising:
a first device comprising a first processor which executes a first procedure, the first procedure comprising:
extracting, before deploying an application definition information defining specific descriptions for explaining execution results of the application and ways in which the execution results are tied to the specific descriptions, from source code of the application;
deploying the application in the first device;
associating, by the first device the execution results with an identifier identifying the definition information instead of tying the specific descriptions when executing the application, and
a second device including a second processor which executes a second procedure, the second procedure comprising:
obtaining the execution results associated with the identifier by the second device that is to access the log information of the application;
tying, by the second device, the obtained execution results to one of the specific descriptions on the basis of the way defined in the definition information that is separately obtained on the basis of the identifier associated with the obtained execution results; and
accessing, by the second device, the obtained execution results tied to the one of the specific descriptions as the log information of the application.
3. An information processing apparatus comprising:
a processor which executes a procedure comprising:
extracting, before deploying an application definition information defining specific descriptions for explaining execution results of the application and way in which the execution results are tied to the specific descriptions, from source code of the application;
deploying the application in a first device;
associating, by the first device, the execution results with an identifier identifying the definition information instead of tying the specific descriptions when executing the application;
obtaining the execution results associated with the identifier by a second device that is to access log information of the applications;
tying, by the second device, the obtained execution results to one of the specific descriptions on the basis of the way defined in the definition information that is separately obtained on the basis of the identifier associated with the obtained execution results; and
accessing, by the second device, the obtained execution result tied to the one of the specific descriptions as the log information of the application.
