In terms of "patterns"...

I'd implore you strongly to look into honeycomb: honeycomb.io/ When I started reading about their philosophy of log events, my mind exploded. I tried it and loved it...I did a bit of a write up of it here: thedevcoach.co.uk/phat-event-logging/

In terms of tools...

Log saas tools are a pain in the ass. If you have an AWS account, you could ship them to cloudwatch and use that. Personally I'm a big fan of cloudwatch insights, you can do some pretty neat stuff with it. And if you set up your log rentions nicely, you'll hardly pay anything.
