Amazon EventBridge now supports enhanced logging for improved observability
Amazon EventBridge now supports logging to Amazon CloudWatch Logs, Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3), and Amazon Kinesis Data Firehose, improving observability and simplifying debugging for your event-driven applications. You can now log results from matched rules, errors, and target invocations for your event bus, giving you deeper insights into your applications event processing and helping you root cause issues faster.
The Amazon EventBridge event bus is a serverless event broker that enables you to create scalable event-driven applications by routing events between your own applications, third-party SaaS applications, and other AWS services. With support for enhanced logging, you can now track the lifecycle of events by selecting one of three log levels (error, info, and trace), and optionally choose to include event payloads, giving you control over privacy and cost. EventBridge event bus logs can be enabled through the AWS Management Console, AWS CLI, or SDKs and you can configure log destinations using Amazon CloudWatch Logs vended logs capabilities.
This feature is currently available in the US East and Asia Pacific Regions. Support for logs are provided at no additional cost, however, standard rates for log storage and data transfer apply.
