Key metrics for monitoring AWS Lambda

AWS Lambda is a compute service that enables you to build serverless applications without the need to provision or maintain infrastructure resources (e.g., server capacity, network, security patches). AWS Lambda is event driven, meaning it triggers in response to events from other services, such as API calls from Amazon API Gateway or changes to a DynamoDB table.

Tools for collecting AWS Lambda data

In Part 1 of this series, we discussed AWS Lambda functions and some key metrics for monitoring them. In this post, we’ll look at using Amazon’s native tooling to query those metrics. We’ll also show you how to collect logs and traces that provide further visibility into your Lambda functions. Amazon provides built-in monitoring functionality through CloudWatch and X-Ray.

Monitoring AWS Lambda with Datadog

In Part 2 of this series, we looked at how Amazon’s built-in monitoring services can help you get insights into all of your AWS Lambda functions. In this post, we’ll show you how to use Datadog to monitor all of the metrics emitted by Lambda, as well as function logs and performance data, to get a complete picture of your serverless applications. In this post, we will: Datadog integrates with AWS Lambda and other services such as Amazon API Gateway, S3, and DynamoDB.

Introducing Lambda Enhanced Metrics

AWS Lambda decouples the need to provision and maintain a runtime environment from running code, allowing developers to focus on applications rather than infrastructure. But, by abstracting away the underlying infrastructure of an application, serverless architectures introduce new challenges into monitoring and observability.

What does that mean? Loki can run with or without it. In fact, the query frontend both produces and consumes the Loki API, meaning to a consumer there’s no difference.
