AWS ELB Application Logging Overview

Sending data to Logit.io from an Amazon Elastic Load Balancer (ELB) Application is an integrated process that empowers organizations to gain valuable insights into their applications' performance and security.

By integrating your Amazon ELB Application with Logit.io, you can effortlessly collect and analyze logs and metrics generated by your ELB instances.

Additionally, if you're looking to learn about effective data storage solutions, our Amazon S3 (Simple Storage Service) > integration is a valuable resource, offering information on Amazon's versatile object storage service that pairs with Logit.io for long-term log storage and archival.

These integrations are seamlessly integrated into Logit.io's AWS logging (opens in a new tab) service.
