Why should an instance created by an ASG have a host name? These are cattle not pets. I use Serilog for logging with an EC2 enricher that automatically adds the instance Id and the IP address.
Since Serilog does structured logging, I can use either an ElasticSearch or Mongo sink and do complex queries.
If I routinely need to log into an instance to troubleshoot, I need to be capturing data and sending it to a central logging system.
