Amazon EKS Capabilities Log Delivery

Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (Amazon EKS) Capabilities can now be configured as log delivery sources using Amazon CloudWatch Vended Logs. This enables customers to monitor and troubleshoot their EKS Capabilities for Argo CD, AWS Controllers for Kubernetes (ACK), and kro (Kubernetes Resource Orchestrator) by monitoring logs collected from the managed controllers that run in AWS-managed infrastructure.

Customers can enable log delivery for each capability using CloudWatch APIs or the AWS Console. Logs are configured as a CloudWatch Vended Logs delivery source, enabling reliable, secure log delivery to CloudWatch Logs, Amazon S3, or Amazon Kinesis Data Firehose destinations.

This feature is available in all AWS Regions where the EKS Capabilities feature is supported. Standard CloudWatch Vended Logs pricing applies based on the chosen destination. There is no additional EKS charge.

To learn more about EKS Capabilities, visit the Amazon EKS documentation.
