Splunking AWS config logs without the AWS App

[RocIngersol]

Hi Folks,

Anyone out there Splunked their AWS config logs (Cloudwatch, AWS Config etc) without using the AWS app?

I have an eye watering amount of AWS logs that firehose into my on prem indexes. I don’t have the option of installing the app, but wondering if I could edit it to work against my existing index / source.

Failing that I guess I’ll go hunting and rex’ing.

Thoughts welcome. Thanks!

So some weeks down the line I parked any idea of trying to shoehorn the AWS App against my existing indexes.

I’ve been fishing for myself, exploring and pulling out all sort of goodness from AWS config and Cloudtrail.
