Deep dives
Introduction of Persistent Logging
Cloudflare workers now feature persistent logging, enhancing the ability to track and query logs post-deployment. Previously, developers could only access real-time logs, necessitating the use of additional tools for historical analysis. The new logging capability streamlines this process, allowing seamless access to logs through the Cloudflare dashboard, which improves observability for developers. This development is part of an overarching strategy to integrate comprehensive monitoring solutions into the Cloudflare workers platform.
