AWS Observability
AWS Observability for Grafana Cloud provides you with a centralized place to access, query, alert on, and interact with your infrastructure and large scale applications. Start work instead of managing a backend, and configure simply and securely.
Out of the box, AWS Observability offers:
- AWS CloudWatch Metrics: Connect and pull CloudWatch metrics into Grafana Cloud without deploying or installing any local agents or configurations.
- Logs with Lambda: Connect and send logs from multiple AWS services to Grafana Cloud by deploying a Lambda-compatible agent for logs into your AWS infrastructure.
- Logs with Firehose: For growing log volumes or large-scale logs, Logs with Firehose using Amazon (Kinesis Firehose is more scalable and almost three times cheaper.
- Services monitoring: Monitor your services within AWS, including EC2 and RDS.
AWS Observability provides you with access to a fast, scalable backend that you don’t have to manage. Instead of running your own exporter to pull cloud data to a local observability system, you can the Grafana cloud-native solution to keep your data in the cloud, with minimal setup overhead.
Access and manage your metrics and logs in Grafana Cloud, and work with your observability data in a centralized, consistent way. All data is stored in a single backend along with the rest of your observability data. You can write single queries that span all data, including infrastructure and application data.
Configure with no exchange of credentials required. AWS Observability follows AWS best practices for granting third parties access. Grafana Cloud gains access using AWS account delegation. Or you can configure AWS to send your data directly to Grafana Cloud.
