Using CloudWatch Logs
AWS CloudWatch Logs helps you store, monitor, and analyze your application, system and custom logs, centrally. Using CloudWatch Logs you can monitor your logs in near real time for specific errors and exceptions in your application. For example, you might want to monitor exceptions such as NullPointerException, ArrayIndexOutOfBounds, and ArithmeticException in your Java application.
We will need to aggregate the logs from multiple hosts in an environment where instances are added and deleted, dynamically.

You can analyze your logs and archive them for access later.
