AWS ELB Access Logs OpenTelemetry Assets

Serverless Observability Serverless Security Stack 9.2.0

This package contains Kibana assets for monitoring AWS ELB load balancers. We support access logs collected from Application Load Balancers (ALBs), Network Load Balancers (NLBs) and Classic Load Balancers.

ECF is the simplest way to configure AWS ELB log collection. Refer to the ECF for AWS documentation for full setup instructions.

Any OTel-supported collection method is supported provided the required extension is included.

This package has been tested with OpenTelemetry Collector version 0.138.0. The OpenTelemetry components used are awss3receiver, awslogsencodingextension, and elasticsearchexporter.
