Axiom wants $60/m if you send them a terabyte of logs, which is basically nothing compared to the cost of developers trying to debug issues without detailed logs.

I think you're being naive on the costs but that's just me. That's the intro price, plus you have transfer fees , vcpu .

I've never used axiom, but all the logging platforms I've used like splunk, datadog, loggly are a major op-ex line item.

And telling your developers their time is priceless means they will produce the lowest quality product.

not to mention the performance impact of synchronous logging. Write a trivial benchmark and add logging and you will see cost per operation 1000x
