Filters – AWS Metadata – Support Additional IMDS Instance Metadata Categories

[commiterate]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

The AWS Metadata filter currently supports a small subset of IMDS instance metadata categories.

Describe the solution you'd like

Support additional IMDS instance metadata categories. In particular:

• Services
  • AWS Partition (services/partition)
  • AWS Region Domain (services/domain)
• Placement
  • AWS Region (placement/region)
    • In multi-region deployments with global observability aggregation, it's useful to know an instance's region to identify region outages (e.g. us-east-1 is down but us-west-2 is up).
  • AWS Availability Zone ID (placement/availability-zone-id)
    • Across AWS accounts, the same availability zone name (e.g. us-east-1a, which the filter supports today) maps to different underlying availability zone IDs (e.g. use1-az1, use1-az2).
    • In multi-account deployments, it's useful to know an instance's availability zone ID to identify availability zone outages (e.g. use1-az1 is down but use1-az2 is up).
  • Placement Group Name (placement/group-name)
  • Placement Group Partition Number (placement/partition-number)
  • Dedicated Host ID (placement/host-id)
    • Useful for identifying bad dedicated hosts (e.g. EC2 Mac instances which require dedicated hosts due to Apple's EULA).
• IP Addresses (Public/Private IPv4/6)
  • The filter currently supports only the private IPv4 address.
• AWS EC2 Auto Scaling
  • Target Lifecycle State (autoscaling/target-lifecycle-state)
    • Useful for correlating EC2 Auto Scaling Lifecycle Hook events with on-instance events (e.g. graceful shutdown procedures).
