AWS Serverless application that sends log data from CloudWatch Logs to New Relic.

To forward data to New Relic you need a New Relic License Key.

To install and configure the New Relic Cloudwatch Logs Lambda, see our documentation.

Additional notes:

• Some users in UTF-8 environments have reported difficulty with defining strings of NR_TAGS delimited by the semicolon ; character. If this applies to you, you can set an alternative delimiter character as the value of NR_ENV_DELIMITER, and separate your NR_TAGS with that.

If your organization restricts access to deploy via SAR, follow these steps below to deploy the log ingestion function manually.

1. Clone this repository: git clone https://github.com/newrelic/aws-log-ingestion.git
2. Install the SAM CLI Make sure you have >=0.33.0 installed, you can check with sam --version.
3. Retrieve your New Relic License Key
4. Build the SAM application (if on Linux -u can be omitted): sam build -u --parameter-overrides 'ParameterKey=NRLicenseKey,ParameterValue=your-license-key-here'
5. Deploy the SAM application: sam deploy --guided

Additional notes:

• To set LOGGING_ENABLED: sam build ... --parameter-overrides 'ParameterKey=NRLoggingEnabled,ParameterValue=True'

1. Clone this repository: git clone https://github.com/newrelic/aws-log-ingestion.git
2. Install Serverless: npm install -g serverless
3. Install the serverless-python-requirements plugin: sls plugin install -n serverless-python-requirements
4. If not running Linux, install Docker
5. Retrieve your New Relic License Key
6. Set the LICENSE_KEY environment variable: export LICENSE_KEY=your-license-key-here
7. Deploy the function: sls deploy

Additional notes:

• To set LOGGING_ENABLED: export LOGGING_ENABLED=True (prior to deploy)

In your Terraform, you can add this as a module, replacing {{YOUR_LICENSE_KEY}} with your New Relic License Key.

module "newrelic_log_ingestion" {
  source             = "github.com/newrelic/aws-log-ingestion"
  nr_license_key     = "{{YOUR_LICENSE_KEY}}"
}

By default, this will build and pack the lambda zip inside of the Terraform Module. You can supply your own by switching build_lambda = false, and specify the path to your lambda, using lambda_archive = "{{LAMBDA_PATH}}", replacing {{LAMBDA_PATH}} with the path to your lambda.
