Can you tell us about how error handling and exceptional situations are organized in your previous project?

In my previous project, error handling was organized centrally using multiple levels:
- Local exception handling — in places where it was possible to recover correctly or provide the user with a clear message.
- Global error handler — caught unhandled exceptions, logged them, and returned standardized responses.
- Logging and monitoring — all errors were recorded in the log system with a level of importance, allowing quick response to critical failures.
For example, in Java, try-catch blocks were used for local handling, and in Spring Boot, @ControllerAdvice was configured for global exception handling:
@ControllerAdvice
public class GlobalExceptionHandler {
@ExceptionHandler(Exception.class)
public ResponseEntity<String> handleAllExceptions(Exception ex) {
// log the error
logger.error("Unexpected error", ex);
// return a response with a message
return ResponseEntity.status(HttpStatus.INTERNAL_SERVER_ERROR)
.body("An internal server error occurred");
}
}
This approach ensured application stability and ease of maintenance.
