How It Works
Hydrolix for AWS uses your data sources and S3 storage in your AWS account to give you control over resource use. Hydrolix handles the rest on Hydrolix-managed AWS services, providing dashboards with information about your services.
AWS logs are sent via Kinesis or Data Firehose to Hydrolix. After processing, indexing, and compression, the log data is written in Hydrolix format to S3 in your AWS account. Later, the Hydrolix query engine uses that data to serve queries that power Grafana dashboards and alerts.
