CDK support for AWS Batch FireLens integration (April 2025 release)

[lohmuller]

Hi everyone,

I saw that in April 2025, AWS Batch added support for FireLens with ECS jobs:
https://aws.amazon.com/about-aws/whats-new/2025/04/aws-batch-amazon-elastic-container-service-exec-firelens-log-router/

However, as of now, it seems that CDK doesn’t support configuring FireLens directly in aws-batch L1 or L2 constructs.
Do you have any plans or an estimated timeline for when support for this will be added to the CDK (either in L1 or L2 constructs)?

Currently, I’m working around this limitation using a CfnJobDefinition with a manual override like this:

jobDefinition.addPropertyOverride(
  "EcsProperties.TaskProperties.0.Containers.1.FirelensConfiguration",
  {
    Type: "fluentbit",
    Options: {
      "enable-ecs-log-metadata": "true",
    },
  }
);

It would be great to know if native support is on the roadmap.
Thanks in advance!
