I am learning about the google cloud platform, and came across following services from GCP
Cloud Logging - 
https://cloud.google.com/logging/docs
Error Reporting - 
https://cloud.google.com/error-reporting
Based on the documentation, Cloud logging collects log from many GCP Services, stores them and provide a way to query the log. I also noticed that, some log entries are marked with "ERROR" severity level.
"Error reporting" documentation says - Error Reporting counts, analyzes, and aggregates the crashes in your running cloud services
Does that mean.. If there is any "ERROR" in a Service, both "Cloud Logging" and "Error Reporting" captures that? And if that is the case, why do we even need "Error Reporting".. I mean, if Error Reporting captures the same logs as Cloud Logging, then why can't we use Cloud Logging for storing and analyzing these logs? is my understanding correct?

Cloud computing, also known as on-demand computing, is a kind of Internet-based computing where shared resources and information are provided to computers and other devices. It is a model for enabling ubiquitous, on-demand access to a shared pool of configurable computing resources. Cloud computing and storage solutions provide users and enterprises with various capabilities to store and process their data in third-party data centers, relying on sharing of resources to achieve coherence and economies of scale.

Cloud Computing

Cloud services are services made available to users via the Internet from a provider's servers. Cloud services are designed to provide easy, scalable access to applications, resources and services, and are fully managed by a cloud services provider. It is a model for enabling ubiquitous, on-demand access to a shared pool of configurable computing resources. Frequently offered cloud services are infrastructure-as-a-service (IaaS), desktops-as-a-service (DaaS), software-as-a-service (SaaS) and platform-as-a-service (PaaS). Examples of cloud services include online data storage and backup solutions, Web-based e-mail services, hosted office suites and document collaboration services, database processing, managed technical support services and more.
