I'm trying to configure a container to work with Splunk but can't find information about the configuration, Can someone please point me in the right direction?

Thanks

Assuming that you are looking to sent logs to Splunk, check out this blog on how to use the Splunk logging driver with your ec2 instances!

Hi epotex!

Can you clarify what exactly you are trying to achieve? Do you want the container to log to Splunk? Or are you trying to run Splunk IN the container?

Sure, I want to send the container logs to Splunk via the built in Splunk plugin for ECS

Thanks!
