Case study of Amazon EKS logging and monitoring

You are a DevOps engineer who has just been employed to help migrate a couple of monolithic applications into microservices. The choice made for managing the microservices is to use a container-based system due to the advantages containers have. The company has gone further to say that they will be using Amazon EKS as the service for orchestration of the Docker images that have been built. Your company has just got the ISO 27001 certification for information security. So, things such as auditing applications and services are taken very seriously. Logs of applications are to be kept and audited from time to time to ensure that the company continues to remain compliant. Added to that, close monitoring of the applications and notification alarms needs to be configured to receive notifications when applications have any kind of behavior that is not normal.
