AWS Configuration
Follow this curated path to connect your AWS environment to Datadog and monitor your cloud resources, hosts, and logs in one place.
Through hands-on courses, you'll learn how to configure the Datadog AWS integration, install the Datadog Agent on Amazon EC2 for host-level visibility, and send AWS logs to Datadog for search and analysis.
This path is designed for DevOps engineers, cloud engineers, and site reliability engineers (SREs) who are setting up Datadog for their organization's AWS infrastructure.
You’ll learn how to do the following:
Getting Started with the Datadog AWS Integration
Configure the Datadog AWS integration with a CloudFormation template to collect metrics and resource inventories from your AWS account. Tour the out-of-the-box AWS dashboards, the Resource Catalog, and Cloudcraft views that Datadog generates.
Install the Datadog Agent on Amazon EC2
NEW! Install the Datadog Agent on Amazon EC2. Compare SSH, AWS Systems Manager, and other installation methods. Then, use Fleet Automation to manage, configure, and upgrade the Agent across your EC2 fleet.
Send AWS Logs to Datadog
Learn to centralize AWS logs in Datadog. Configure Amazon Data Firehose, Lambda Forwarder, Datadog Agent, Lambda Extension, and FluentBit to collect logs from VPC, CloudTrail, ALB, EC2, Lambda, and ECS Fargate services.
