 # LogQL: Log Query Language
 
 Loki comes with its own PromQL-inspired language for queries called *LogQL*.

 reduces the number of searched streams to a manageable volume. This means that
 the labels passed to the log stream selector will affect the relative
 performance of the query's execution. The filter expression is then used to do a
 distributed `grep` over the aggregated logs from the matching log streams.
