At Logit.io, we prioritise efficient and productive log analysis solutions that is able to reduce manual tracing of log files and improve monitoring and analysis. One way you can stay on top of your system's logs is by thoroughly analysing Amazon log files.

By using the right tools suited for a wide range of AWS logging use cases, you'll be able to put error resolution and root-cause analysis first and control the accuracy of notifications and alerts.

What Are Amazon Logs?

AWS logs are created by a host of different Amazon Web Services including Cloudwatch, Cloudtrail, S3, ALB, VPC and EC2. Monitoring these logs is vital to ensure visibility of your operations, for example Cloudtrail should be monitored so that assets can be discovered and tracked proactively to maintain an accurate inventory.

With all these different types of services and their respective logs it can be difficult to keep track of the performance of all of your AWS environments, this is where a tool like Logit.io can be used to fully centralise your logs, metrics and traces into a simple easy to understand platform.

Faster Resolution and Log Aggregation

Since each independent Amazon Web Services process generates its own log files, its important to collect all logs into a centralised location for monitoring and analysis. With Amazon, the final destination of log files is determined when the cluster is created.

If you use more than one Amazon AWS service, you may quickly find that your logs grow out of control across a number of decentralised systems. A tool like Logit.io can process all of your AWS log files within a single centralised repository.

With all log files in a single, cloud-based centralised location, you can automatically parse the logs at once, monitor them and prepare them for further analysis, and visualisation. With Logit.io's AWS log aggregation, you'll be able to save time and resources on data processing — especially for critical situations such as when errors occur or for root-cause analysis.

Logit.io For OpenTelemetry

OpenTelemetry (OTel) combined with Logit.io makes end-to-end observability easy. Using OpenTelemetry, engineers can essentially standardize any data coming from any source.

A secure, compliant, and production-ready distribution of the OpenTelemetry project, Logit.io for OpenTelemetry provides unified analysis and complete centralization of any kind of telemetry data.

Since all major observability vendors are required to support the OpenTelemetry protocol, choosing an analysis service that is already OpenTelemetry-compliant is crucial to future-proofing your operations.
