Amazon Kinesis Data Firehose receives logs from services such as Amazon CloudWatch, Amazon API Gateway, AWS Lambda, and Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) in one place, and routes them to third-party tools and systems.

● Real-time visibility with Live Tail and dynamic indexing based on easy-to-create filters with Datadog’s Logging without Limits.

● Automatic parsing and enrichment with additional metadata.

● Log Analytics for high cardinality analysis and generated metrics for understanding long-term trends.

● Correlation of log data with metrics and traces from other parts of your infrastructure.
