Overview
Amazon CloudSearch is a managed service in the AWS Cloud that makes it simple and cost-effective to set up, manage, and scale a search solution.
Enable this integration to see in Datadog all your CloudSearch metrics.
Setup
Installation
If you haven’t already, set up the Amazon Web Services integration first.
Metric collection
- In the AWS integration page, ensure that
CloudSearch is enabled under the Metric Collection tab. - Install the Datadog - Amazon CloudSearch integration.
Log collection
Enable logging
Configure Amazon CloudSearch to send logs either to a S3 bucket or to CloudWatch.
Note: If you log to a S3 bucket, make sure that amazon_cloudsearch is set as Target prefix.
Send logs to Datadog
If you haven’t already, set up the Datadog Forwarder Lambda function.
Once the Lambda function is installed, manually add a trigger on the S3 bucket or CloudWatch log group that contains your Amazon CloudSearch logs in the AWS console:
