A CloudWatch Logs subscription filter is sending a high-volume stream of events to Kinesis Data Streams, and the destination is being throttled. Which documented change most directly helps reduce the throttling risk at the subscription filter level?

Question

Accepted Answer

A. Set the subscription filter distribution to random. For subscription filters targeting Kinesis Data Streams, CloudWatch Logs recommends specifying random distribution because the default distribution by log stream can cause throttling. Route 53 health checks and StackSets are unrelated to CloudWatch Logs delivery sharding behavior.
