# `journald`
`journald` is a program that comes as default with [systemd](systemd.md). It is
a service for collecting and storing system-level log data. I keeps a track of
all [kernel](The_kernel.md) processes. It is invaluable when tracing the source
of problems and errors that may arise on the system level. It keeps a track of
all kernal processes.
