Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS) is a container management service that allows you to manage Docker containers on a cluster of Amazon EC2 instances. The Sumo Logic App for Amazon ECS provides preconfigured searches and Dashboards that allow you to monitor various metrics (CPU and Memory Utilization, CPU and Memory Reservation) across ECS clusters and services. The App also monitors API calls made by or on behalf of Amazon ECS in your AWS account.

We have two app versions which have separate collection steps 

  1. Collect Logs and Metrics for ECS - This version collects ECS CloudWatch Metrics and ECS Events using AWS CloudTrail

  2. Collect Logs, Metrics(Container Insights+Cloudwatch) and Traces for ECS - This version collects ECS CloudWatch Metrics, Container Insights Metrics, ECS Events using AWS CloudTrail, Application Logs and Traces. Metrics collected by Container Insights are charged as custom metrics. For more information about CloudWatch pricing, see Amazon CloudWatch Pricing.This solution enables you to monitor both ec2 and fargate based ecs deployments.
