Amazon CloudWatch er AWS's overvågnings- og observability-tjeneste — der indsamler metrics, logs og events fra AWS-ressourcer og applikationer, med alarms og dashboards. Det er essentielt for at forstå systemets sundhedstilstand, diagnosticere problemer og reagere på problemer.
Hvad CloudWatch tilbyder
METRICS → numerical data over time (CPU, memory, request count, latency, etc.)
→ AWS services publish metrics automatically; you can publish CUSTOM metrics too
LOGS → collect, store, and search application/system logs (CloudWatch Logs)
ALARMS → trigger actions when a metric crosses a threshold (alert, auto-scale, etc.)
DASHBOARDS → visualize metrics/logs in charts
EVENTS (EventBridge) → react to changes/events in your AWS environment
