SenseDeep Quick Tour

SenseDeep is a development studio for serverless developers. It offers fast, in-depth serverless design, troubleshooting and monitoring so that developers can quickly create and debug serverless applications.

SenseDeep provides AWS developers with critical tools to efficiently create, debug, deliver and maintain serverless applications.

It includes invocation traces, metrics, logs, alarms, alerts and notifications and watches over your services 24x7.

SenseDeep is unique as the only open architecture solution where your serverless and log data never leave your account and you have full access and control over your data.

Serverless Made Crystal Clear

Serverless Metrics

SenseDeep organizes and aggregates essential AWS lambda metrics and CloudWatch logs data into a unified view.

You can visualize:

  • which requests are failing now
  • performance over various time periods
  • the impact of cold starts on your service
  • the duration of function execution
  • the history of function invocations
  • the configuration and cost of functions

Invocations in Depth

Serverless Metrics

One click on a function event brings up the full details of that invocation.

The inline log data for that invocation shows the precise invocation details. Log data is formatted and JSON color-coded.

Errors are highlighted so you can easily see the cause of any failures.

If required, you can jump to the full log and zoom to that invocation in context.

Dashboards at a Glance

Dashboard Widgets

Fully customizable dashboards with graphical and numeric widgets.

Display metrics for every AWS service and for custom application specific metrics.

Dashboards can display widgets for multiple AWS accounts in different regions.

Save and share dashboard views with team members.

Alarms and Alerts

SenseDeep Alarms

Automate your error and performance issue detection with the most powerful alarm capability available.

Create alarms for any application log event not just metrics.

Alarms can trigger on log event patterns and exclude noisy conditions for more effective alerts.

Create event-based alarms based on matching EventBridge events.

Dynamically subscribe new lambdas to alarms by tags or matching regular expression names.

Trigger notification alerts by email or SMS.

Smart notification dampening so you don't get swamped by alerts.

Lambda Insights

Serverless Metrics

Improve service performance with guided insights and recommendations.

Tune your function's memory size, timeout limits, throttling, cold starts and function cost.

Unique Open Architecture Logging

Open Architecture

SenseDeep has a unique open architecture design where your serverless and log data are stored within your account. Your data never leaves your account.

Open, published DynamoDB table schema so you can fully access and utilize your log data for custom needs.

Log data captured by a high-performance lambda in your account called the Watcher.

Data stored in a DynamoDB table in your account for secure, high-performance storage.

More secure as your logging identifiers and secrets are never sent over the wire to another service.

Blazing Fast Log Viewer

SenseDeep Viewer

The SenseDeep log viewer is blazing fast and a joy to use.

Infinite, buttery smooth scrolling.

Real-time, live-tail automatically displays new log data without clicking reload.

Powerful search and query to instantly locate important events.

Create and share multiple "views" of your log with custom filters and time ranges.

Powerful Structured Queries

Queries

Search for important log events via full text queries.

Use regular expressions or key/value searches using a familiar Javascript expression language.

Add exclusion patterns to focus on events of interest.

Smart Log Parsing

SenseDeep Parser

SenseDeep will extract meaning from your log event structure and automatically map fields to columns for display.

Understands: JSON, Anchored patterns, CSV, TSV, Delimited, Key/Value pairs, Syslog and custom formatted logs.
