Deploy the AWS Resource Metadata Collection AWS Lambda function in your AWS account. The function collects metadata of EC2 instances and AWS Lambda functions in the region of your AWS account and sends them to Coralogix.
AWS resources can be vast and interconnected. To better understand log data and troubleshoot issues, it’s important to have context about which AWS resources are involved. The AWS Resource Metadata Collection integration collects information about AWS resources that are associated with log events. This contextual information can include details about the AWS service, resource tags, AWS region, timestamps for resource creation or modification, and any relevant custom tags specific to the organization’s AWS environment.
The collection of EC2 instance and Lambda function metadata serves as a foundation for better AWS resource management, optimization, security, and efficient troubleshooting. It helps you make informed decisions and take actions based on a more comprehensive understanding of your AWS resources and their interactions.
