Deprecation of Coralogix Logback SDK

Published: February 16, 2026

Effective: June 30, 2026

Deprecation notice

Coralogix will deprecate the Coralogix Logback SDK on June 30, 2026.

Coralogix Logback libraries are deprecated in favor of OpenTelemetry logging for Java, which is now the recommended and supported approach for exporting logs and correlating them with traces to Coralogix.

Action is required to ensure continued support and compatibility.

Why this is happening

OpenTelemetry supports bridging logs from common Java logging frameworks into the OpenTelemetry Logs SDK, enabling consistent export via OTLP.

What’s affected

Coralogix Logback appender libraries are being deprecated.

These libraries may currently be used in:

  • Java services using Logback where Coralogix appenders are configured in logback.xml
  • Applications that configure Coralogix-specific credentials inside Logback appender configuration
  • Build pipelines that package Coralogix Logback appender dependencies

After the effective date, these SDKs will no longer be supported or maintained.

What you need to do

Migrate to OpenTelemetry logging for Logback

Replace Coralogix Logback appenders with an OpenTelemetry-based approach and export via OTLP.

What will happen after June 30, 2026?

  • The Coralogix Logback SDK will no longer be supported.
  • No bug fixes, updates, or security patches will be provided.
  • Compatibility with newer Logback versions is not guaranteed.
  • Support requests related to the deprecated SDK may be declined.
  • Existing applications may continue to function, but migration is strongly recommended.
