Overview
The IIS W3C logging format is a standard format used by Microsoft's Internet Information Services (IIS) to log detailed information about web requests. This format is widely used for its comprehensive coverage of web server activities, including details such as client IP addresses, user names, request timestamps, HTTP status codes, and bytes transferred. These logs are invaluable for monitoring and analyzing web server performance, identifying security issues, and troubleshooting application problems.
