Amazon CloudWatch and OpenSearch Service integrated analytics experience is now available in 2 additional commercial regions: Asia Pacific (Hong Kong) and Europe (Stockholm).
With this integration, CloudWatch Logs customers have two more query languages for log analytics, in addition to CloudWatch Logs Insights QL. Customers can use SQL to analyze data, correlate logs using JOIN, sub-queries, and use SQL functions, namely, JSON, mathematical, datetime, and string functions for intuitive log analytics. They can also use the OpenSearch PPL to filter, aggregate and analyze their data. With a few clicks, CloudWatch Logs customers can create OpenSearch dashboards for VPC, WAF, and CloudTrail logs to monitor, analyze, and troubleshoot using visualizations derived from the logs. OpenSearch customers no longer have to copy logs from CloudWatch for analysis, or create ETL pipelines. Now, they can use OpenSearch Discover to analyze CloudWatch logs in-place, and build indexes and dashboards on CloudWatch Logs.
With this launch the integrated experience is now generally available in Asia Pacific (Hong Kong) and Europe (Stockholm) along with regions where OpenSearch Service direct query is available. Please read pricing and free tier details on Amazon CloudWatch Pricing, and OpenSearch Service Pricing.
