AWS changes the pricing of CloudWatch logs in Lambda
Briefly

AWS has announced a shift to tiered pricing for CloudWatch logs in its Lambda service, effective May 1st, 2025. This change aims to lower costs for enterprise users with high logging volumes. Previously, a flat fee of $0.50 per GB was charged for logs, but now, costs decrease with increased usage, dropping as low as $0.05 per GB for higher tiers. This shift supports developers by making it easier and more affordable to utilize various monitoring tools and enhancing operational efficiency for serverless applications.
"On May 1st, 2025, AWS announced changes to Lambda logging, which can reduce Lambda CloudWatch logging costs and make it easier and more cost-effective to use a wider range of monitoring tools."
"It becomes even more important for serverless applications built using Lambda because of the ephemeral and stateless nature of the Lambda execution environment."
"The pricing tiers scale with your logging volume, ensuring that costs are proportionate to usage and providing significant savings for larger enterprises."
