The Amazon ECS console now natively integrates with Amazon CloudWatch Logs Live Tail, enabling real-time log streaming directly within the ECS console.
ECS customers often need to analyze logs in real time to troubleshoot application issues, investigate deployment failures, and monitor container health. Previously, customers had to navigate away from the ECS console to the CloudWatch console to access real-time log streams, creating workflow interruptions. With this integration, ECS customers can now monitor and troubleshoot containerized applications in real-time without switching between AWS consoles.
To start tailing logs in the ECS console, navigate to the logs tab on any ECS service or task details page. Simply click the “Open CloudWatch Logs Live Tail” button, and click “Start”. The Live Tail panel remains visible as you navigate the console, enabling log monitoring while checking other operational metrics.
Live Tail in the ECS console is now available in all AWS commercial regions. To learn more, visit the ECS developer guide.
