about this example
Centralized logging is pivotal for managing logs across distributed services. Here's a breakdown of this example:
- Log ingestion: Captures logs using Amazon CloudWatch Logs from various AWS services like AWS CloudTrail, Amazon EC2, and VPC Flow Logs.
- Log indexing: Utilizes Amazon Kinesis Data Streams and AWS Lambda for data processing before persisting logs in Amazon S3.
- Visualization: Implements Amazon OpenSearch Service within a VPC for log data analysis and leverages Kibana for visualizations, secured by Amazon Cognito.
- Multi-account Strategy: Showcases log aggregation from multiple accounts for a unified logging layer.
When to use
- Complex Systems Monitoring: When you need to aggregate logs across multiple AWS services and accounts for a unified view.
- Security and Compliance: In scenarios where tracking and analyzing access and flow logs are critical for compliance audits.
- Performance Optimization: For identifying performance bottlenecks and optimizing resource utilization within cloud environments.
