Summary

Datadog has announced native support for FireLens for Amazon ECS, allowing centralized logging from traditional infrastructure to serverless components. In partnership with AWS, built-in Fluent Bit support is provided for seamless routing of container logs from AWS Fargate. Users can configure Fluent Bit directly in their Fargate tasks and monitor the logs alongside other Fargate metrics for visibility into their containerized services. The integration also supports automatic ingestion of additional tags, enabling easy sifting, filtering, and analysis of logs. Additionally, Datadog's Autodiscovery feature automatically detects containerized services on Fargate and configures checks for 650+ integrations like Redis and NGINX.
