Cribl

Destination

Amazon Managed Service for Prometheus

Route data directly to Amazon Managed Prometheus for storing, querying, and alerting on metrics.

About the Integration: 

Cribl adds a native Amazon Managed Service for Prometheus (AMP) destination, allowing teams to send Prometheus-compatible metric events from Stream directly to AMP via the Prometheus remote write pattern. For AWS-first observability teams, that creates a cleaner path into managed metrics storage and alerting while supporting AWS-native authentication for AMP deployments.

Benefits and Use Cases:

  • Send Prometheus-compatible metric events from Cribl Stream to Amazon Managed Service for Prometheus. 

  • Use a dedicated destination tile built for AMP instead of relying on a generic workaround pattern. 

  • Support AWS-native deployments with region-aware configuration, IAM role assumption, and SigV4 signing for the remote write endpoint. 

  • Route, shape, and optimize metrics before delivery to support AWS observability workflows with Amazon Managed Grafana and related services.

How to Get Data Flowing:

This is a built-in integration between Cribl Stream and Amazon Managed Service for Prometheus. 

  • Create or identify the AMP workspace in AWS, wait until it is active, and copy the remote write URL and AWS Region from the workspace details.

  • Grant the IAM identity Cribl will use the aps:RemoteWrite permission; if you plan to assume a role, also allow sts:AssumeRole and ensure the target role can remote write to the workspace.

  • Add a new Amazon AMSP destination in Cribl Stream from QuickConnect or Destinations, then enter a unique Output ID, the AMP remote write URL, and the matching Region.

  • Configure authentication, optional Assume Role, and any persistent queue or retry settings you need for resilience; keep the endpoint on HTTPS and do not manually set SigV4 or Prometheus remote write headers.

  • Attach the destination to the relevant routes or QuickConnect flow, and send only metric events that Cribl can serialize for Prometheus remote write.

  • Verify delivery with Run Test, Live Data, logs, and monitoring before scaling production traffic; confirm the region matches the URL and keep request bodies within AMP limits to avoid non-retryable 413 errors.
