Available detectors

• awsEcsDetector: Populates container for containers running on Amazon ECS
• awsEksDetector: Populates container and k8s.cluster_name for containers running on Amazon EKS
  • k8s.cluster_name is not always available depending on the configuration of CloudWatch monitoring for the EKS cluster

  • faas.id is currently not populated as it is not provided by the runtime at startup
