[5/100] #100DaysOfCloud Today, I created a CloudWatch Alarm for an EC2 instance to send a notification when the Alarm triggers an Alert state.
Amazon CloudWatch :
- Amazon CloudWatch collects and visualizes real-time logs, metrics, and event data in automated dashboards to streamline your infrastructure and application maintenance.
Use cases :
-
Monitor application performance
- Visualize performance data, create alarms, and correlate data to understand and resolve the root cause of performance issues in your AWS resources.
-
Perform root cause analysis
- Analyze metrics, logs, logs analytics, and user requests to speed up debugging and reduce overall mean time to resolution.
-
Optimize resources proactively
- Automate resource planning and lower costs by setting actions to occur when thresholds are met based on your specifications or machine learning models.
-
Test website impacts
- Find out exactly when your website is impacted and for how long by viewing screenshots, logs, and web requests at any point in time.
