Options
- AEnable VPC Flow Logs and analyze them in Amazon OpenSearch Service.
- BUse Amazon CloudWatch Logs to analyze application logs for the various calls.
- CEnable detailed monitoring for the EC2 instances in Amazon CloudWatch.
- DImplement AWS X-Ray with client handlers for the various downstream calls.

Explanation
AWS X-Ray traces end-to-end requests through your distributed application. By instrumenting your application with X-Ray client handlers (for the AWS SDK and HTTP clients), you can capture and visualize the timing of each call to downstream services, such as DynamoDB, S3, or other APIs, directly in the X-Ray service map and trace details. This provides precise latency measurements without modifying your logging framework or overloading CloudWatch Logs.
