AWS SNS

note

For a much easier and more efficient way to collect and send metrics, consider using the Logz.io telemetry collector.

Deploy this integration to send your Amazon SNS metrics to Logz.io.

This integration creates a Kinesis Data Firehose delivery stream that links to your Amazon SNS metrics stream and then sends the metrics to your Logz.io account. It also creates a Lambda function that adds AWS namespaces to the metric stream, and a Lambda function that collects and ships the resources' tags.

Install the pre-built dashboard to enhance the observability of your metrics.

To view the metrics on the main dashboard, log in to your Logz.io Metrics account, and open the Logz.io Metrics tab.

Before you begin, you'll need:

• An active Logz.io account

Configure AWS to forward metrics to Logz.io

1. Set the required minimum IAM permissions

configured the minimum required IAM permissions as follows:

  • s3:CreateBucket
  • s3:DeleteBucket
  • s3:PutObject
  • s3:GetObject
  • s3:DeleteObject

  • s3:AbortMultipartUpload
  • s3:GetBucketLocation
• AWS Lambda:
  • lambda:CreateFunction
  • lambda:DeleteFunction
  • lambda:InvokeFunction
  • lambda:GetFunction
  • lambda:UpdateFunctionCode
  • lambda:UpdateFunctionConfiguration
  • lambda:AddPermission
  • lambda:RemovePermission
  • lambda:ListFunctions
• Amazon CloudWatch:
  • cloudwatch:PutMetricData
  • cloudwatch:PutMetricStream
  • logs:CreateLogGroup
  • logs:CreateLogStream
  • logs:PutLogEvents
  • logs:DeleteLogGroup
  • logs:DeleteLogStream
• AWS Kinesis Firehose:
  • firehose:CreateDeliveryStream
  • firehose:DeleteDeliveryStream
  • firehose:PutRecord
  • firehose:PutRecordBatch
• IAM:
  • iam:PassRole
  • iam:CreateRole
  • iam:DeleteRole
  • iam:AttachRolePolicy
  • iam:DetachRolePolicy
  • iam:GetRole
  • iam:CreatePolicy

  • iam:GetPolicy
• Amazon CloudFormation:
  • cloudformation:CreateStack
  • cloudformation:DeleteStack
  • cloudformation:UpdateStack
  • cloudformation:DescribeStacks
  • cloudformation:DescribeStackEvents
  • cloudformation:ListStackResources

2. Create stack in the relevant region

3. Specify stack details

Specify the stack details as per the table below, check the checkboxes and select Create stack.

Parameter	Description	Required/Default
logzioListener	Logz.io listener URL for your region. (For more details, see the regions page. e.g., https://listener.logz.io:8053	Required
logzioToken	Your Logz.io metrics shipping token.	Required
awsNamespaces	Comma-separated list of AWS namespaces to monitor. See this list of namespaces. Use value all-namespaces to automatically add all namespaces.	At least one of awsNamespaces or customNamespace is required
customNamespace	A custom namespace for CloudWatch metrics. Used to specify a namespace unique to your setup, separate from the standard AWS namespaces.	At least one of awsNamespaces or customNamespace is required
logzioDestination	Your Logz.io destination URL. Choose the relevant endpoint from the drop down list based on your Logz.io account region.	Required
httpEndpointDestinationIntervalInSeconds	Buffer time in seconds before Kinesis Data Firehose delivers data.	60
httpEndpointDestinationSizeInMBs	Buffer size in MBs before Kinesis Data Firehose delivers data.	5
debugMode	Enable debug mode for detailed logging (true/false).	false

4. View your metrics

Allow some time for data ingestion, then open your Logz.io metrics account.

Install the pre-built dashboard to enhance the observability of your metrics.

To view the metrics on the main dashboard, log in to your Logz.io Metrics account, and open the Logz.io Metrics tab.
