FireLens Example: Logging to Datadog with Fluent Bit

For documentation on sending your FireLens monitored log data to Datadog Logs, see: Fluent Bit and Firelens.

For all configuration parameters for Fluent Bit DataDog output plugin, see DataDog or Fluent Bit documentation.

AWS recommends that you store sensitive information, like your Datadog API Key using secretOptions as shown in the example Task Definition. This is optional; it is also valid to simply specify the API Key in options map:

"logConfiguration": {
	"logDriver":"awsfirelens",
	"options": {
	   "Name": "datadog",
	   "Host": "http-intake.logs.datadoghq.com",
	   "TLS": "on",
	   "apikey": "<DATADOG_API_KEY>",
	   "dd_service": "my-httpd-service",
	   "dd_source": "httpd",
	   "dd_tags": "project:example",
	   "provider": "ecs"
   }
},
