Serverless cloud-based architectures are reporting significant challenges in debugging and observability, with cost controls and architectural complexity being less of a concern. The release of AWS Lambda Runtime Logs API is addressing this issue by allowing extensions to access logging data from AWS Lambdas and the Lambda execution environment. New Relic is also releasing updates to support the Logs API, enabling features parity with its existing solution for monitoring Amazon CloudWatch. The integration utilizes the execution time available during function execution to improve latency and cost, while users should be aware of some caveats such as limited log configuration options and potential IAM permission removal requirements. This collaboration between AWS and New Relic brings real insight into the functioning of AWS Lambda-based applications, offering a solution for faster functionality and better observability.
