Local Log Processing

Definition

Local log processing involves analyzing data records generated and stored on a specific device or system. This refers to the computational operations performed directly on log files at the source, rather than sending them to a centralized server for analysis. In distributed systems, including blockchain nodes, local log processing can be crucial for immediate diagnostics, performance monitoring, and ensuring data integrity without external dependencies. It contributes to operational efficiency and data security by reducing network overhead and minimizing exposure of raw data.
