Without the ability to see the logs that are relevant to your service, infrastructure, or cloud function—at exactly the right time and in exactly the right format—your cloud or DevOps engineers lose the ability to find the root causes of the issues they troubleshoot. In some deployment scenarios, you might skip CloudWatch altogether.
