Each of the metrics retrieved from AWS is assigned the same tags that appear in the AWS console, including but not limited to hostname, security-groups, and more.
Note: Metrics prefixed with ecs.containerinsights.* come from the AWS CloudWatch agent.
Events
To reduce noise, the Amazon ECS integration is automatically set up to include only events that contain the following words: drain, error, fail, insufficient memory, pending, reboot, terminate. See example events below:
To remove the whitelist and receive all events from your Datadog Amazon ECS integration, reach out to Datadog support.
Service checks
- aws.ecs.agent_connected: Returns
CRITICALif the Agent cannot connect, otherwiseOK.
