AWS Lambda released the Durable Execution Telemetry Exporter plugin that captures comprehensive real-time execution data from durable functions and exports it to various destinations like CloudWatch Logs, S3, DynamoDB, and OpenSearch. This enables extended history retention and deeper observability beyond default limits.

Additionally, an MCP server allows AI agents to query this telemetry data via natural language, supporting troubleshooting and analysis by engineers and analysts. The exporter supports multiple languages and facilitates integrating AI assistance for automated operational insights. This plugin is available without extra charge in all supporting AWS Regions.
