     3  // Package cloudwatchlogs provides the client and types for making API
     4  // requests to Amazon CloudWatch Logs.
     5  //
     6  // You can use Amazon CloudWatch Logs to monitor, store, and access your log
     7  // files from EC2 instances, CloudTrail, and other sources. You can then retrieve
     8  // the associated log data from CloudWatch Logs using the CloudWatch console,
     9  // CloudWatch Logs commands in the Amazon Web Services CLI, CloudWatch Logs
    10  // API, or CloudWatch Logs SDK.
    11  //
    12  // You can use CloudWatch Logs to:
    13  //
    14  //    * Monitor logs from EC2 instances in real-time: You can use CloudWatch
    15  //    Logs to monitor applications and systems using log data. For example,
    16  //    CloudWatch Logs can track the number of errors that occur in your application
    17  //    logs and send you a notification whenever the rate of errors exceeds a
    18  //    threshold that you specify. CloudWatch Logs uses your log data for monitoring
    19  //    so no code changes are required. For example, you can monitor application
    20  //    logs for specific literal terms (such as "NullReferenceException") or
    21  //    count the number of occurrences of a literal term at a particular position
    22  //    in log data (such as "404" status codes in an Apache access log). When
    23  //    the term you are searching for is found, CloudWatch Logs reports the data
    24  //    to a CloudWatch metric that you specify.
    25  //
    26  //    * Monitor CloudTrail logged events: You can create alarms in CloudWatch
    27  //    and receive notifications of particular API activity as captured by CloudTrail.
    28  //    You can use the notification to perform troubleshooting.
    29  //
    30  //    * Archive log data: You can use CloudWatch Logs to store your log data
    31  //    in highly durable storage. You can change the log retention setting so
    32  //    that any log events older than this setting are automatically deleted.
    33  //    The CloudWatch Logs agent makes it easy to quickly send both rotated and
    34  //    non-rotated log data off of a host and into the log service. You can then
    35  //    access the raw log data when you need it.

    42  // Using the Client
    43  //
    44  // To contact Amazon CloudWatch Logs with the SDK use the New function to create
    45  // a new service client. With that client you can make API requests to the service.
    46  // These clients are safe to use concurrently.
    47  //
    48  // See the SDK's documentation for more information on how to use the SDK.
