Application logs
Centralized Logging with OpenSearch supports ingesting application logs from the following log sources:
-
Instance Group: the solution automatically installs a log agent (Fluent Bit 1.9), collects application logs on EC2 instances and then sends logs into Amazon OpenSearch Service.
-
Amazon EKS cluster: the solution generates all-in-one configuration file for customers to deploy the log agent (Fluent Bit 1.9) as a DaemonSet or Sidecar. After the log agent is deployed, the solution starts collecting pod logs and sends them to Amazon OpenSearch Service.
-
Amazon S3: the solution either ingests logs in the specified Amazon S3 location continuously or performs one-time ingestion. You can also filter logs based on Amazon S3 prefix or parse logs with custom Log Config.
-
Syslog: the solution collects syslog logs through UDP or TCP protocol.
After creating a log analytics pipeline, you can add more log sources to the log analytics pipeline. For more information, see add a new log source.

Important If you are using Centralized Logging with OpenSearch to create an application log pipeline for the first time, you are recommended to learn the concepts and supported log formats and log sources.
