I send my logs to Papertrail and they have a feature that will notify you if your logs match a predefined pattern. Some of the patterns that I use:

* Account deletion (DELETE FROM \"accounts\")

* New successful sign up (INSERT INTO "accounts")

* New signup attempt (Started POST "/signup") [0]

* Fatal Exception Error ("fatal" OR "exception" OR "error")

* Warning ("warn")

I do share my costs and tools publicly, in case if you're interested: https://tryhexadecimal.com/costs

[0] I got hit by a botnet attack couple weeks ago, so I keep a tab on their activity (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=21327416)
