Description
Requirement
Structured logging should be added to the SDK to support tracing and debugging by developers and operators. Ideally, these logs integrate naturally with the logging system used by the application host.
Proposal
The java.util.logging.Logger class can be used as the main abstraction for logging, similar to the ILogger interface in .NET.
Other considerations
Azure Functions has a particular way of doing logging and tracing for Java-based function apps. Ideally any design we consider should integrate nicely with external runtime hosts (especially Azure Functions). Azure Functions code can call context.getLogger() to get an instance of java.util.logging.Logger to use for logging.

- Comment on the issue to say you are picking it up — it saves two people doing the same work.
- Fork the repository and make your change on a branch.
- Open a pull request that references the issue number.
Research direction
Start by reading the structured logging requirement, the java.util.logging.Logger proposal, and the linked Azure Functions logging guidance. Define how SDK logging should integrate with host-provided loggers, especially context.getLogger(), and treat a design and implementation that support tracing and debugging across external runtimes as done.
