 # Application analytics
 
-Application analytics can now create custom Observability Applications to view the availability status of all their systems, where log events can be combined with trace and metric data, into a single view of system health empowering developers and IT Ops to resolve issues faster and with fewer escalations.Application analytics in Observability is where you can select logs, traces, and metrics to be part of an Observability Application that can be monitored for overall health and visualized on one page. This allows you to quickly pivot between logs, traces, and metrics to dig into the source of any issues. Many teams use similar logs and similar traces and need a structured view.

 ## View logs
 
-Users have several ways to view their logs.
+The following are methods you can use to view logs.
 
 ### Trace log correlation
 
-Users who regularly track events across applications have the capability to correlate logs and traces. To view the correlation, users have to index the traces as per the Open Telemetry standards (similar to Trace analytics). Once users add a **TraceId** field to their logs, they can view the trace information that corresponds to the same execution context as the log.

-### Live Tail
+### Live tail
 
-Users watching a live event take place can now configure the interval in which content is refreshed saving the hassle of manually refreshing. This provides users with a faster debugging experience, and allows them to monitor their logs in real-time. Users also have the convenience of choosing the interval at which live tail should update. As this feature mimics the "tail -f" command in command line, it only retrieves the most recent live logs by possibly eliminating a heavy load of live logs.
+If you prefer watching events happen live, you can configure an interval so event analytics automatically refreshes the content. Live tail lets you stream logs live to OpenSearch observability event analytics based on the provided PPL query, as well as provide rich functionality such as filters. Doing so improves your debugging experience and lets you monitor your logs in real-time without having to manually refresh. You can also choose intervals and switch  between them to dictate how often live tail should stream live logs. This feature is similar to the CLI's `tail -f` command in that it only retrieves the most recent live logs by possibly eliminating a large portion of live logs. Live tail also provides you with the total count of count of live logs received by OpenSearch during the live stream, which you can use to better understand the incoming traffic.
