Explanation

Using the Amazon Kinesis Producer Library (KPL) agent on EC2 to collect logs and send them to Amazon Kinesis Data Streams provides a highly available, near-real-time log streaming pipeline. KPL handles batching, compression, and retry logic for reliable delivery. Kinesis Data Streams enables downstream consumers (such as Amazon Kinesis Data Analytics or AWS Lambda) to process and display log data with minimal latency. CloudWatch detailed monitoring (option A) is better suited for metrics than log content analysis. CloudWatch subscriptions (option D) add complexity for cross-instance aggregation. KPL with Kinesis Data Streams is the most scalable and low-latency solution for this multi-EC2 log analysis use case.
