What problem does it solve?
The CloudWatch Logs tool eliminates manual console hunting by giving you guided access to log groups, streams, Insights queries, and policies so you can quickly correlate errors across Lambda, API Gateway, Glue, RDS, ECS, and other services.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Comprehensive Log Inspection: Describe log groups, streams, and events with optional filters to examine execution details and latency anomalies.
- Insights Query Workflow: Start queries, wait for results, and fetch data sets so you can answer questions such as which Lambda function emitted ERROR traces or what the average latency is.
- Policy and Resource Management: Create, tag, or delete log groups, streams, metric filters, subscription filters, retention policies, and resource policies to keep your observability stack tidy and secure.
Quick Start
Ask awsclaw-cloudwatch to run FilterLogEvents on your Lambda log group for ERROR entries from the past hour.
