Summary

AWS has introduced an update allowing Lambda customers to provision up to 10 GB of ephemeral storage for each function, making them suitable for data-intensive workloads such as machine learning inference, large media file processing, and financial analysis. Datadog is supporting this update by enriching existing metrics with a new tag to help users monitor their functions' ephemeral storage usage and capacity. The Lambda extension now automatically tags all functions by storagesize, enabling users to query or filter them by storage configuration from within Datadog’s Serverless view.
