Amazon CloudWatch announces log routing and chained log parsers
News
Amazon CloudWatch announces conditional log routing and chained parsers for CloudWatch pipelines, enabling more sophisticated log data transformation and routing.
- Conditional log routing sends events to different log groups based on conditions evaluated against processed fields
- Separate events by severity, source, or type with appropriate retention and access controls
- Chained parsers apply multiple parser processors sequentially, where later parsers consume fields from earlier ones
- Parse JSON envelopes first, then apply Grok parsers to extracted fields
- Available in all commercial AWS Regions where CloudWatch pipelines is generally available
- Configure via AWS Management Console, AWS CLI, or AWS SDKs
These capabilities enable handling of diverse log formats and routing them to appropriate log groups within a single pipeline.
