Other Way to Send Data from AWS 

Some additional ways of sending AWS data to Honeycomb include:

  • AWS Distro for OpenTelemetry (ADOT) - Because Honeycomb supports native OTLP ingest, you can send tracing data directly to Honeycomb. To learn more, visit the ADOT Docs.

  • AWS Lambda - Honeycomb supports receiving data from instrumented Lambda Layers. To learn more, visit AWS Lambda.

  • AWS PrivateLink - Honeycomb supports sending data through AWS PrivateLink. To learn more, visit AWS PrivateLink. AWS PrivateLink connections are only available for Honeycomb Enterprise plans.

  • AWS CloudWatch, Amazon S3, Amazon Kinesis, and AWS Lambda - Honeycomb AWS integrations use a combination of these services to stream metrics and log data to Honeycomb. To learn more about Honeycomb’s AWS integrations, visit How AWS Integrations work.
