I will go a step further by stating that metrics, logs and traces are very similar and should be treated as such in a unique platform. Leveraging these 3 sources of data in a micro-services world is more than needed for troubleshooting, documentation and monitoring. Right now I'm using Prometheus (metrics) + Jaeger (traces) + Fluentd&Clickhouse (logs) + Grafana to render all of that. It's not that easy to correlate data but I'm getting there (with tricky queries in Grafana panels and custom Grafana sources).
