Hybrid logical clocks merge physical time with logical counters to track event ordering in distributed systems. They prevent conflicts by combining NTP timestamps with version vectors, enabling accurate causality detection without full synchronization. This benefits developers building databases, messaging queues, or collaborative software where precise event sequencing is critical for consistency and debugging.
