AWS Application Load Balancer
Set up logging on your Application Load Balancer (ALB) in AWS
The AWS Application Load Balancer (ALB) Logging integration for FireTail allows you to efficiently collect and analyze logs from your AWS ALB. This integration helps you monitor and troubleshoot your load balancer by providing detailed logs about request and traffic patterns. By integrating ALB logs with FireTail, you gain valuable insights into the performance and behavior of your load balancer.
Key benefits:
- Automated collection of ALB logs.
- Detailed insights into load balancer traffic and performance.
- Improved monitoring and troubleshooting capabilities.
The integration sets up logging for your AWS ALB by either deploying a CloudFormation stack or configuring manually.
The process involves creating an S3 bucket for log storage, enabling EventBridge notifications, and configuring the ALB to send logs to the S3 bucket.
FireTail processes these logs and sends them to the FireTail platform.
To set up AWS ALB Logging with FireTail, you need an AWS account with permissions to create and manage S3 buckets and CloudFormation stacks. Start by creating an integration in the FireTail platform and generate an application token.
You can choose to deploy the integration using CloudFormation or manually configure the required resources.
