Ask HN: Where to Store Logs?
4 by HigherConscious | 1 comments on Hacker News.
Say you have a web application and want to store events like page views, clicks, etc. for analytics. Where should this data be stored? Is it considered acceptable for the web server to just INSERT every event directly into a SQL database table? If so, then at what volume of throughput does that break, and how should one handle higher scale? Let's say that this is for a website where users can generate content (eg. Youtube) and view detailed analytics on that content.
