Hey @buraizu, I think this PR is blocking local builds across branches.
Could you either land this PR (maybe with an empty shortcode content) or temporarily back out the integration content change in websites-sources until this merges? Happy to review if it helps unblock. |
Rephrased prereq + Install Agents sections. Expect EKS updates, updated permissions and wording around permissions early next week!
…technical documentation coming in upcoming commit
…cument for Agent Installation, giving deep information on permissions, reasoning, and mechanism

What does this PR do? What is the motivation?
Fixes DOCS-14545
Documents Agent installation on Amazon EC2 directly through the AWS integration (preview). This PR includes:
content/en/integrations/guide/aws-agent-installation.md: what the feature does, prerequisites, the required AWS permissions and why each is needed, the installation entry points, verification, and troubleshooting. Gated withprivate: trueuntil the v1 rollout.content/en/integrations/guide/aws-agent-installation-technical-reference.md: the AWS resources Datadog creates, the installation mechanism, the security and auditing model, and the Agent lifecycle and reconciliation behavior. Aimed at platform, cloud, and security teams reviewing what runs in their AWS account. Also gated withprivate: true.aws-agent-installationshortcode for the Agent installation IAM policy, so the same content can be reused on the main AWS integration page.Scope
Amazon EC2 only. Support for more AWS resource types is planned, starting with EKS.
Dependencies
The companion PR DataDog/integrations-internal-core#3426 adds an Agent installation section to the main AWS integration page and consumes the
aws-agent-installationshortcode from this PR. This PR should merge first.Merge instructions

Additional notes
Do not publish before the v1 rollout. Both new pages are gated with
private: trueand must be un-gated together, since they cross-link.
