AWS CodeDeploy

CodeDeploy default dashboard

Overview

AWS CodeDeploy is a service that automates code deployment to instances in the cloud and on-premise.

Enable this integration to see AWS CodeDeploy deployment events and metrics in Datadog.

Setup

Installation

If you haven’t already, set up the Amazon Web Services integration first.

Metric collection

  1. Add the following permissions to your Datadog IAM policy in order to collect AWS CodeDeploy metrics. For more information, see the CodeDeploy policies on the AWS website.

    AWS PermissionDescription

  2. Install the Datadog - AWS CodeDeploy integration.

Log collection

Enable logging

Configure AWS CodeDeploy to send logs either to a S3 bucket or to CloudWatch.

Note: If you log to a S3 bucket, make sure that amazon_codedeploy is set as Target prefix.

Send logs to Datadog

  1. If you haven’t already, set up the Datadog Forwarder Lambda function.

  2. Once the Lambda function is installed, manually add a trigger on the S3 bucket or CloudWatch log group that contains your AWS CodeDeploy logs in the AWS console:
