Send logs to CloudWatch Logs

Focus mode
Send logs to CloudWatch Logs - Amazon CloudWatch

To send logs from your containers to Amazon CloudWatch Logs, you can use Fluent Bit. For more information, see Fluent Bit.

Note

As of February 10 2025, AWS has deprecated support for FluentD as a log forwarder to CloudWatch Logs. We recommend that you use Fluent Bit, which is a lightweight and resource-efficient alternative. Existing FluentD deployments will continue to function. Migrate your logging pipeline to Fluent Bit to ensure continued support and optimal performance.

Container Insights previously also supported using FluentD to send logs from your containers. FluentD has been deprecated and is now not supported for Container Insights. Use Fluent Bit instead.
