Cloudwatch is the de facto method of consuming logs and metrics from your AWS infrastructure. The problem is, it is not the de facto method of capturing metrics for your applications. This creates two places where observability is stored, and can make it difficult to understand the true state of your system. That’s why it has become common to unify all data into one place, and Prometheus offers an open-source, vendor-agnostic solution to that problem.
In the blog titled “Streamline Endpoint Data with Cribl Pack for SentinelOne Cloud Funnel” we dove into the Cloud Funnel data, its relevance in the modern SOC, and how Cribl Stream transforms the data while addressing visibility gaps. We left the AWS-specific details to this blog for those not yet familiar with configuring AWS S3 buckets, SQS Queues, and Identity and Access Management (IAM).

Today’s hybrid network environments have a balance of both distributed networks and implementations of modern technology. But they are not short of one core component: servers. Maintaining server availability and health has always been a necessity when it comes to network management. Preserving network uptime comes down to monitoring and managing the factors contributing to network downtime. One such factor that has a high potential to cause performance anomalies is hardware.
