It aims to replace traditional logging systems with a feature-rich tool that enhances performance by efficiently handling log events. With the ability to log thousands of lines per second without latency, Semantic Logger provides developers with the capability to extract valuable insights from their applications without compromising performance.

This framework not only supports a variety of logging destinations out-of-the-box but also integrates seamlessly with popular monitoring and dashboarding tools like Kibana and New Relic. Its extensive features make it a powerful choice for developers looking to enhance their application's logging capabilities.
