AWS SDK Java Clients report the remote IP Address

[Y-Luo]

Describe the feature

Have all AWS SDK Java Clients report the remote IP Address that they connected to for a call. Ideally add the remote ip address info to service log.

Use Case

After a recent event, we knew we were talking to DDB's public endpoint, but we did not know that a subset of IPs that their DNS was resolving to were having issues. Had we had this information readily available, we would have been able to root cause it much faster.

Proposed Solution

Right now the remote IP address only gets logged in debugging log. Maybe make it available in AwsSdkMetricsFactory or AwsSdkMetricsRequestHandler.

Hi @Y-Luo

the Java SDK 2.x will print the IP address in the logs when the Netty client is used, under Channel Information - for example:

software.amazon.awssdk.core.exception.SdkClientException: Unable to execute HTTP request: The connection was closed during the request. The request will usually succeed on a retry, but if it does not: consider disabling any proxies you have configured, enabling debug logging, or performing a TCP dump to identify the root cause. If this is a streaming operation, validate that data is being read or written in a timely manner. Channel Information: ChannelDiagnostics(channel=[id: 0x321f2d4c, L:/192.153.177.20:50484 - R:kinesis.us-west-2.amazonaws.com/3.123.11.183:443], channelAge=PT12.410S, requestCount=1)

I see you are using Java SDK 1.11.x - we don't have plans to support this in the Java SDK 1.x.
