AWS Storage Gateway

Overview

AWS Storage Gateway provides seamless and secure integration between an organization’s IT environment and AWS’s storage infrastructure.

Enable this integration to see in Datadog all your Storage Gateway metrics.

Setup

Installation

If you haven’t already, set up the Amazon Web Services integration first.

Metric collection

  1. In the AWS integration page, ensure that StorageGateway is enabled under the Metric Collection tab.
  2. Install the Datadog - AWS Storage Gateway integration.

Log collection

Enable logging

Configure AWS Storage Gateway to send logs either to a S3 bucket or to CloudWatch.

Note: If you log to a S3 bucket, make sure that amazon_storage_gateway is set as Target prefix.

Send logs to Datadog

  1. If you haven’t already, set up the Datadog Forwarder Lambda function.

  2. Once the Lambda function is installed, manually add a trigger on the S3 bucket or CloudWatch log group that contains your AWS Storage Gateway logs in the AWS console:
