Surprisingly, audit logging has been deceivingly complex for us. There are many types of events (part of logs) triggered throughout the platform carrying different payloads/formats (e.g. events related to secrets, users, etc.). The variation in such events is increasing with the complexity of the product not to mention costs required to handle accumulating events. Last month, we served 14.2M+ secrets alone through the platform not counting other events — I hope this sheds more light on the audit logging side of things?

Re SSO: Totally get this one and I'm aware of the SSO tax — we're still figuring this one out but know currently that it's an absolute must for enterprises.

You know what you're definitely right about audit logging. It does seem like one of those "easy on the surface, will absolutely kill you in the details" sorts of things.

I know we (WorkOS) have already chatted with you about SSO, but reading this comment I'm realizing we should really also chat about Audit Logs too.

We recently built an entire product to make it insanely easy to offer enterprise-grade audit logs to your customers. Plus it includes strongly-typed event payload schemas and log streaming to 3rd-party SIEM vendors. Super fast to integrated with pay-as-you-go pricing based on volume. Vercel and others are using this.

I think we have a shared Slack channel set up with Infisical so feel free to DM me there. You can also email me direct: [email protected]. (Same goes for anyone else on HN needing this stuff. :))
