Hi All,

I am attempting to get log data from an AWS Lightsail server (centOS) into Splunk. Has anyone done this and willing to shed light on the most efficient way? Lightsail is a type of EC2 and may work with the Add-On, but I am not sure that is the best way to obtain the data and am having a little difficulty setting it up. Any feedback would be appreciated. Thanks!

What logs are you trying to get? From OS or AWS itself?

You probably just need to install UF on the instance and relevant add-ons such as Splunk add-on for Linux, Nginx or Apache.
