Suppose, you have a special log table of your application.
What do you think about creating a BLOB field for a possible stack trace ?
Logging is done to file as well, but it is not so convenient to read a text file, moreover database is more “accessible”.
Duplicate logging sounds like… well, duplicate logging. Overhead. If you need to access the logs through database, I would rather use/write a tool that can import the logs to a separate database when needed. Or make them accessible by some other means. One tool that I know of is Splunk, but it’s expensive and I’m sure there are others too.
