Part 1: Connect with your AWS services 🔗
Install the AWS integration and connect your AWS services with Splunk Observability Cloud. For an overview of the tutorial, see Tutorial: Monitor your AWS environment in Splunk Observability Cloud.
Connect with AWS 🔗
Send Amazon Web Services data to Splunk Observability Cloud using polling (default), which you can set up using the Splunk Observability Cloud UI guided install. Optionally, you can use the Splunk Observability Cloud API.
Alternatively, you can opt for data streaming (Splunk-managed), data streaming (AWS-managed), or to configure the connection using Splunk Terraform.
Poll AWS data using the UI 🔗
To access the guided setup for the AWS integration:
Splunk Observability Cloud にログインします。
In the navigation menu, select
, , then . The following window displays:
Configure the following connection options:
Overall region: The AWS region from which AWS manages your resources. For more information, see 対応AWSリージョン.
Authentication type: How you authenticate to connect with AWS. Learn more at 外部IDを使ってAWSで認証する(推奨).
Data types: The types of data and metadata to ingest.
In the CloudWatch Metrics option, select Polling as the ingestion method, and set up the polling rate at which you want Splunk Observability Cloud to poll CloudWatch for metric data.
Your data sources: AWS Regions and services.
For details on each step, read Splunk コンソールからポーリング経由で AWS に接続する.
Available AWS services 🔗
To monitor the specific services you’re using, check the list of AWS integrations available in Splunk Observability Cloud.
For the list of metrics provided by each service, see the AWS official documentation .
Install the OpenTelemetry Collector to send server and cluster data (Optional) 🔗
Optionally, you can install the Splunk Distribution of OpenTelemetry Collector on any hosts or clusters you’re using as a part of your infrastructure to send metrics to Infrastructure Monitoring, traces to APM, or logs to the Splunk Platform.
OpenTelemetry Collector の Splunk Distribution を使用してデータを Splunk Observability Cloud に送信する利点の 1つは、Splunk Observability Cloud の主要なビュー間をシームレスに移動できるようにする機能である Related Content を簡単に実装できることです。詳細については、Splunk Observability Cloudの関連コンテンツ を参照してください。
