How many Serilog logger instances should be created for different .net app on same machine?

Question

I am new to Serilog. Trying to understand below scenario. If we have 2 different .net application/controls referring to common serilog config file. The file will contain custom prefix tags corresponding to each application. Each app/custom control has created logger using below in its code:

var app1Logger = new LoggerConfiguration()
.ReadFrom.AppSettings("customprefix1", configFilePath)
.CreateLogger();

var app2Logger = new LoggerConfiguration()
.ReadFrom.AppSettings("customprefix2", configFilePath)
.CreateLogger();
For such scenario, should we be creating different loggers each?

Answer 1

If you are talking about two different standalone programs using Serilog, then each program should be using its own logging configuration for Serilog in each program IMHO.
