Build docker image

docker build -t starchx/centos-httpd-cloudwatch .

Push docker image

docker push starchx/centos-httpd-cloudwatch

Remove previous pods in EKS

kubectl delete -f pod.yaml

Launch a new pod in EKS

kubectl apply -f pod.yaml

CloudWatch can be configured in amazon-cloudwatch-agent.json

Requirements

• CloudWatch installer requires system init, so I use this one as base image from Centos https://hub.docker.com/r/centos/systemd/
• Container needs to be launched with privileges and access to sys-fs-cgroup (refer to pod.yaml)
• EKS worker node instance role needs to have "CloudWatchAgentServerPolicy" policy attached

Tested and confirmed logs are showing up in CloudWatch Console.
