When something breaks in production, you find out fast. Understanding why it broke, before the damage spreads, is the hard part. That is where Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) teams lose the most time. Think about the last time you got paged at 2 a.m. The alert said something broke, not why. You open four or […]

This post was co-written with Bharadwaj Tanikella (AI/ML Product Engineering Leader) and Mohammad Jama (Product Marketing Manager) from Datadog. In December 2025, we showed how AWS DevOps Agent and Datadog MCP Server could work together to autonomously correlate monitoring data with the infrastructure deployed and configured on AWS to resolve incidents in minutes instead of […]

AWS DevOps Agent can investigate a growing range of production incidents autonomously. It diagnoses CrashLoopBackOff failures, traces ConfigMap deletions through audit logs, and correlates Amazon CloudWatch metrics with cluster events — all without human intervention. But AWS DevOps Agent has a visibility boundary. When the data it needs lives outside its native integrations — on […]

Introduction When a deployment fails, finding the root cause often means piecing together information from multiple sources. You wait for the deployment to finish, request a log bundle, download it, and then search through files like eb-engine.log and cfn-init.log to find the error. If you’re not familiar with Elastic Beanstalk’s log file structure, you might […]

Modern distributed systems route business transactions through dozens of microservices, message queues, and event streams. When a message fails to process or processing exceeds SLA thresholds, troubleshooting requires correlating logs from tools like Elasticsearch, metrics from Datadog, and infrastructure change events in AWS CloudTrail. Correlating these signals manually across heterogeneous backends, each with different query […]

Authors: Sourav Kundu and Joyson Neville Lewis. In today’s cloud-native landscape, ensuring the integrity and authenticity of your serverless functions is critical for maintaining security and compliance. Organizations face increasing challenges in preventing the execution of tampered or malicious code in their AWS Lambda functions. These challenges intensify as deployment pipelines become more complex and […]

Introduction Modernizing applications by upgrading language runtimes, migrating SDKs, and refactoring frameworks is important for cloud adoption but can be labor-intensive at scale. Each repository requires analysis of dependencies and transformation needs; custom transformation logic must be built and validated, and changes are often executed sequentially across codebases. If you have hundreds of applications, this […]

When we launched Amazon Q Developer, our goal was to bring AI assistance directly into the developer workflow. Customers adopted Q Developer across VS Code, JetBrains, Eclipse, and Visual Studio, using it for code generation, debugging, and chat-based guidance. Q Developer proved that AI belongs in the inner loop of software development. Over the past […]

AWS DevOps Agent is your always-available operations teammate that resolves and proactively prevents incidents, optimizes application reliability and performance, and handles on-demand SRE tasks across AWS, multicloud, and on-premises environments. It integrates with your existing observability tools to correlate telemetry, code, and deployment data to reduce Mean Time To Repair (MTTR) and drive operational excellence. […]

Standardizing CDK construct properties across a large organization requires repetitive manual effort that scales poorly as teams and repositories grow. Development teams working with AWS Cloud Development Kit (AWS CDK) must apply the same configuration properties across similar resources to meet security, compliance, and operational standards but manual configuration leads to drift, maintenance burden, and […]
