trigger lambda function from log write in cloudwatch log group

Question

I've setup some aws cloudwatch agents to send logs to a cloudwatch log group and what I want to do now is get those into an elasticsearch cluster (on ec2). Ideally, what I want to do is write a lambda function that parses it and then sends it to elasticsearch, but also have the lambda function be triggered anytime a message is written to the log group. Is it possible to trigger lambda from a cloudwatch log group?

Subscribing AWS Lambda functions to CloudWatch Logs is documented here. Also, streaming CloudWatch Logs to the AWS ElasticSearch service is documented here.

Here you can find the documentation about adding a subscription to CloudWatch logs for Lambda.

For streaming to AWS ElasticSearch see this (as mentioned before).
