The SageWorks framework continues to 'flex' to support different real world use cases when operating a set of production machine learning pipelines. As part of this we're including CloudWatch log forwarding/aggregation for any service using the SageWorks API (Dashboard, Glue, Lambda, Notebook, Laptop, etc).
Log Groups and Streams
The SageWorks logging setup includes the addition of a CloudWatch 'Handler' that forwards all log messages to the SageWorksLogGroup
Individual Streams
Each process running SageWorks will get a unique individual stream.
- ecs/DashBoard* (any logs from SageWorks Dashboard)
- glue/* (logs from Glue jobs)
- lambda/* (logs from Lambda jobs)
- docker/* (logs from Docker containers)
- laptop/* (logs from laptop/notebooks)
Since many jobs are run nightly/often, the stream will also have a date on the end... glue/my_job/2024_08_01_17_15
AWS CloudWatch made Easy
Logs in Easy Mode
The SageWorks cloud_watch
command line tool gives you access to important logs without the hassle. Automatic display of important event and the context around those events.
The cloud_watch
script will automatically show the interesting (WARNING and CRITICAL) messages from any source within the last hour. There are lots of options to the script, just use --help
to see options and descriptions.
Here are some example options:
# Show important logs in last 12 hours
cloud_watch --start-time 720
# Show a particular stream
cloud_watch --stream glue/my_job
# Show/search for a message substring
cloud_watch --search SHAP
# Show a log levels (matching and above)
cloud_watch --log-level WARNING
cloud_watch --log-level ERROR
cloud_watch --log-level CRITICAL
OR
cloud_watch --log-level ALL (for all events)
# Combine flags
cloud_watch --log-level ERROR --search SHAP
cloud_watch --log-level ERROR --stream Dashboard
These options can be used in combination and try out the other options to make the perfect log search :)

Access through AWS Console
Since we're leveraging AWS functionality you can always use the AWS console to look/investigate the logs. In the AWS console go to CloudWatch... Log Groups... SageWorksLogGroup
