Welcome to the Google Cloud Platform 2014 Year in Review blog series. Each day for the next two weeks, we will be featuring a different Googler sharing their highlight from the past year in Cloud Platform.



Most developers spend more than 50% of their time tracking down and fixing issues in production. This year, Google Cloud Platform took a big step to get you some of that time back with Google Cloud Logging, which allows you to aggregate logs from your compute instances and other services in a unified Logs Viewer interface with search capabilities. We were stoked that we could just click on the logs (e.g. showing an error or high latency) and get to the exact version, file and line of code causing the problem.



We're looking forward to 2015 where we will save developers even more time!
