Use the CloudWatch embedded metric format to generate a custom metric that is based on the error message. Create an Amazon Simple Notification Service (Amazon SNS) topic. Configure a CloudWatch alarm to use the custom metric to notify the SNS topic. Subscribe the application team's email address to the SNS topic.

D. Configure the unified Amazon CloudWatch agent on the EC2 instances to publish the application logs files to a CloudWatch log group. Create an Amazon OpenSearch Service domain. Subscribe the CloudWatch log group to the OpenSearch Service domain. Create an Amazon Simple Notification Service (Amazon SNS) topic.
