Amazon Kinesis

Version: AWS Log Forwarder v1.0.10 and above

Amazon Kinesis Data Analytics is a managed service used to process and analyze streaming data using Java, SQL, or Scala. The service quickly authors and runs the Java, SQL, or Scala code against streaming sources to perform the time series analytics, feed real-time dashboards, and create real-time metrics.

Netsurion Open XDR monitors events from Amazon Kinesis by parsing the AWS CloudTrail logs for Kinesis. Dashboards and reports in Netsurion Open XDR allow you to monitor overall actions triggered related to Kinesis so that you are informed about its activities. It will trigger alerts whenever an action that is critical to the application is carried out, like stopping operation or deletion of app configuration or the application itself.

For a new instance, integrate the AWS instance to Netsurion Open XDR using the Netsurion integrator AWS Lambda function, which will in turn deliver logs to Netsurion Open XDR from Amazon Web Services. For an already-integrated AWS instance, make sure to update to AWS Log Forwarder to v1.0.10 or above.

To take advantage of this data source integration and to learn more about alerts, reports, and dashboards, contact your Technical Account Manager (TAM). If you are not currently a Netsurion customer or partner, contact us to learn more.
