Amazon OpenSearch Ingestion now supports unified ingestion endpoint for OpenTelemetry data

Amazon OpenSearch Ingestion Updates

Amazon OpenSearch Ingestion now supports a unified ingestion endpoint for OpenTelemetry observability signals, including logs, metrics, and traces, through a single pipeline. This simplifies pipeline architecture and reduces operational overhead.

Customers can now build centralized observability pipelines that consolidate logs, metrics, and traces in one place, making it easier to correlate signals and gain a holistic view of application health. This also reduces the number of pipelines managed, lowering infrastructure costs and simplifying access control, monitoring, and lifecycle management.

What to do

• Use the new unified OpenTelemetry source in your pipeline configuration via the AWS Management console or AWS CLI.
• Point your OpenTelemetry clients to the new unified endpoint.
