1. A computer implemented method for displaying metrics associated with log data, the computer implemented method comprising:
receiving a first stream of log data being generated by an operational system;
forwarding a second stream of log data to a first location and a third stream of log data to a second location separate and distinct from the first location, wherein the second and third streams of log data are forwarded to the first location and to the second location concurrently and each of the second and third streams of log data include data describing each log contained in the first stream of log data;
storing the second stream of log data forwarded to the first location;
extracting a subset of the third stream of log data forwarded to the second location at the second location in accordance with a set of rules based on predefined queries of a real-time reporting service;
storing the subset of the third stream of log data at a third location separate and distinct from the first and second locations;
transmitting one or more metrics included in the subset of the third stream of log data to the real-time reporting service; and
providing the one or more metrics from the subset of the third stream of log data to a user of the real-time reporting service.
