Amazon ECS now provides Action Logs for deployment and orchestration visibility
News
This article announces Action Logs, a new observability feature for Amazon ECS that provides detailed, timestamped records of deployment and orchestration operations.
- Delivers visibility into service deployment state transitions and Managed Daemon updates previously invisible to customers
- Each log entry includes event name, log level (INFO, WARN, ERROR), resource ARNs, and status reason
- Opt-in at cluster level via Amazon ECS console or CloudWatch vended logs APIs
- Logs can be delivered to CloudWatch Logs, Amazon S3, or Kinesis Data Firehose
- Amazon Q in ECS console integrates with Action Logs to detect issues and provide root cause analysis
