This template creates a Lambda function that sends log messages to Sumo Logic. It also includes a dead letter queue and a function that periodically retries sending of failed messages.
This template is a simplified version of the one found in the Sumo Logic repo:
https://github.com/SumoLogic/sumologic-aws-lambda/tree/master/cloudwatchlogs-with-dlq
It uses a YAML template and excludes email alerts, so you can use Datadog or another monitoring tool of choice instead.
Deployment is done via a single-file CloudFormation template. You can deploy this using the AWS console or the aws cloudformation deploy
command.
