Yourkit ssh and aws ssm

Post by rrourke »

Hello, we use aws ssm to connect to our ec2 instances. I was wondering if its possible to have yourkit connect via ssh config (can utilize proxycommand) or if there is some way I am able to connect.

This feature is on our radar, but at the moment, the profiler cannot directly work with AWS SSM due to some limitations in the libraries we are using. As a workaround, we suggest building a tunnel with the SSH command and mapping a local_port to the SSH port of the AWS instance. After that, the profiler will be able to connect to ssh://127.0.0.1:local_port
