Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If traditional log systems are used without informative trace identifiers, then the system complexity is low, but it becomes difficult to filter and analyze log entries related to specific operations
Solution Approach 1:
The identification information is segmented into multiple fields including operation content fields and unique identification fields. This segmentation allows the system to filter and analyze logs based on specific operation content while maintaining unique tracking capability, resolving the contradiction between ease of log analysis and system complexity.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces identification information as an intermediary element that bridges the gap between operations and log entries. This intermediary contains structured fields that enable efficient filtering and analysis of logs related to specific operations without requiring complex system-wide changes.
2Reliability
If a large number of logs with warning level or higher are collected, then comprehensive monitoring is achieved, but it becomes difficult to determine log entries for specific operations and trace problem causes
Solution Approach 1:
The patent extracts operation-specific information into dedicated fields within the identification information structure. By taking out operation content and unique identification into separate fields, the system can efficiently filter and retrieve logs for specific operations from the large volume of collected logs, preventing information loss and improving problem diagnosis accuracy.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent changes the parameter structure of log identification by introducing structured fields for operation content and unique identification. This parameter change enables the system to maintain comprehensive log collection while improving the ability to identify and trace operation-specific logs, thus enhancing reliability without losing information.
3Productivity
If detailed identification information with multiple fields is implemented, then targeted analysis of operations is facilitated, but the complexity of log processing increases
Solution Approach 1:
The identification information is divided into structured fields including operation content fields and unique identification fields. This segmentation enables targeted analysis of specific operations by allowing filters to work on individual fields, improving productivity while keeping the processing system manageable through field-by-field operations.
Solution Approach 2:
The structured identification information serves multiple functions simultaneously: it enables filtering by operation content, tracking by unique identification, and structured analysis. This multi-functionality improves operation analysis efficiency without requiring separate systems for each function, thus managing complexity while enhancing productivity.
