A log augmentation system is provided for augmenting log management in a distributed micro-services environment. The log augmentation system includes a trigger device for triggering an augmentation process responsive to micro-service related events and a context of the micro-service related events. The log augmentation system further includes an augmentation rules database with rule management components for determining an augment direction, an augmentation target, and an augmentation correlation relating to the distributed micro-services. The log augmentation system also includes a coordinator for coordinating the augmentation process in the distributed micro-service using a rule-based decision approach. The log augmentation system additionally includes a labeler for applying a set of labels to augment log entries responsive to instructions from the coordinator derived from results of the rule-based decision approach used by the coordinator.
