Today, AWS launches simplified enablement of AWS CloudTrail events in Amazon CloudWatch, a monitoring and logging service that helps you collect, monitor, and analyze log data from your AWS resources and applications. With this launch, you can now centrally configure collection of CloudTrail events in CloudWatch alongside other popular AWS log sources such as Amazon VPC flow logs and Amazon EKS Control Plane Logs. CloudWatch’s ingestion experience provides a consolidated view that simplifies collecting telemetry from different sources for accounts in your AWS Organization thus ensuring comprehensive monitoring and data collection across your AWS environment.
This new integration leverages service-linked channels (SLCs) to receive events from CloudTrail without requiring trails, and also provides additional benefits such as safety-checks and termination protection. You incur both CloudTrail event delivery charges and CloudWatch Logs ingestion fees based on custom logs pricing.
To learn more about enablement of CloudTrail events in CloudWatch and supported AWS regions, visit the Amazon CloudWatch documentation.
