Amazon OpenSearch Ingestion now supports unified ingestion endpoint for OpenTelemetry data
Amazon OpenSearch Ingestion now supports a unified ingestion endpoint that can accept all three OpenTelemetry observability signals — logs, metrics, and traces — through a single pipeline. Previously, customers who wanted to ingest all three OpenTelemetry data types had to create and manage three separate pipelines, one for each signal type. With this launch, a single pipeline can now receive any combination of OpenTelemetry signals, simplifying pipeline architecture and reducing operational overhead.
Customers can now build centralized observability pipelines that consolidate logs, metrics, and traces in one place, making it easier to correlate signals and gain a holistic view of application health. Teams operating at scale can reduce the number of pipelines they manage, lowering infrastructure costs and simplifying access control, monitoring, and lifecycle management. This also makes it easier to adopt OpenTelemetry incrementally as teams can begin with one signal type and add others over time without any pipeline reconfiguration.
The unified ingestion endpoint for OpenTelemetry data is supported in all regions that Amazon OpenSearch Ingestion is currently available. Customers can get started by using the new unified OpenTelemetry source in their pipeline configuration via the AWS Management console or using the AWS CLI and point their OpenTelemetry clients to the new unified endpoint.
