Dovetail application and infrastructure uses industry-standard tooling and multiple logging layers to monitor the application health and alert the engineering team when something is not working as expected.
Application logging
Dovetail utilizes Sentry, Amazon CloudWatch Logs, and Datadog for application logging and monitoring to help diagnose and fix issues within Dovetail. Application error logs are stored in Sentry for 30 days and are used to help investigate issues raised from automatic alarms raised via Sentry, Cloudwatch, and Datadog.
Infrastructure logging
Dovetail utilizes Amazon CloudWatch and Datadog to log, monitor, and alert on resource allocation and operational performance of the infrastructure of the Dovetail web application. Infrastructure logs are stored for 365 days.
Audit logging
Dovetail utilizes Amazon CloudTrail to enable governance, compliance, and operational risk auditing of operations and actions taken on Amazon infrastructure and services. Audit logs are stored indefinitely.
Dovetail also utilizes Vanta to help monitor security related events and misconfigurations. Examples include new user accounts in our IdP, employee account permission changes, publicly accessible infrastructure, IP-based rate limits, and logging not enabled on relevant resources.
