Improving trust with Datadog Log Management | Datadog

What this post added

This post details the integration of Datadog Log Management with Amazon SES to provide enhanced observability for critical emails like password resets. The solution involves configuring SES to publish events (send, reject, bounce, complaint, delivery, open, click) to an SNS topic, which then triggers a Lambda function. This Lambda transfers the email event data to Datadog Log Management. The post includes Terraform snippets for setting up the AWS resources (SNS topic, SES configuration set, SES event destination, Lambda function) and explains how to configure Datadog to view and facet these logs for easier searching and troubleshooting.
