Summary

Datadog Observability Pipelines helps organizations manage the volume and variety of logs generated by critical AWS services such as VPC Flow Logs, AWS WAF, and Amazon CloudFront. By integrating these services with Observability Pipelines, teams can aggregate and process logs from various sources including Amazon S3, Amazon Data Firehose, and AWS Lambda, extract actionable insights from AWS WAF, CloudFront, and VPC Flow Logs, and gain more value from their AWS logs without vendor lock-in. The solution provides a centralized control plane to set up, manage, and optimize log flows, allowing teams to apply transformations, filter repetitive events, sample high-volume logs, and send logs to preferred destinations such as Datadog Log Management or SIEMs for security analytics.
