- Amazon CloudWatch is the ultimate tool for monitoring and managing your resources in AWS. From metrics to logs, alarms to dashboards, there are lots of ways to collect and view data about your environment.
In this short video, I’ll provide an overview of CloudWatch, how metrics work (including basic vs. detailed monitoring, and standard vs. high resolution). Then we dive into the AWS Console for a tour of some EC2 metrics.

What else do you want to learn in AWS? Let me know below in the comments! 🤓
Do you have a playlist of all the AWS products (so many! ) - your channel is one of the best for breaking down the AWS Product line and use cases for the products.
Also, coverage about AWS pricing versus: (Google, Azure, Oracle, etc).
Ue Case: Many Developers laid off from tech in the last 6-months are working on side-client products, but might see AWS as a solution due to the Amazon AWS Credit Card giving 5% back on billing. - Normally use Google Cloud at work, but laid off - and strongly considering switching + new skills.
Thank you for your videos, helpful to transition to AWS.
Thanks for the kind words, Andre, and apologies for the slow response! 🙏🌟 I don't have a playlist for products, but that's a pretty easy ask, so have just made myself a note to put one together. And also love the idea of some GCP/Azure/Oracle/AWS pricing comparisons. I'll have to dig into GCP and Oracle a bit more, as I'm less familiar with those, but love the suggestion. Thanks for taking the time to comment! 🤓
I have a log group for windows logs and the stream is the instance id. Creating a custom metric, i.e using the search term [ERROR] can I call out the instance name in alarms or am I stuck with the log groups name in email notification?
Of all the technical channels I've come across this year, after watching about 20 of your videos, you are by far the best. Absolute top quality content.
Wow, how nice of you! I'm going to hang this comment on my wall!! 🥰🤓🔥 Thanks so much for the support!!
Your Voice quality is great and sense of detail in understanding
You're very kind...thanks so much! 🤓🌟🙏
Just another brilliant tutorial video that gives clear image how it works. Thank you Amber!
You're so welcome! Thanks for the nice comment! 🥰
Was looking for something to help understand metric/metric resolution and stumbled upon your video…I’m only halfway through but wanted to say I appreciate how you’ve put everything together. Your visuals and explanations are perfect! Thank you.
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching! 🙏🤓🌟
We are embarking on a major AWS project. Providing monitoring via datadog. We are AWS rookies. We love your clear presentation. You teach your captions. We know there is much to learn, but you've made us all more confident. Thank you.
Oh, I'm so glad!! Thanks for taking the time to leave such a nice comment. It made my day! 🥰🤓
Hi Amber. Thanks for another great tutorial. To answer your question - it would be nice to see some project-based videos with event-driven architecture, including consuming and processing webhooks from external third-party services, ideally including deploying these projects with Terraform.
Ooh, I love this idea! I'll add it to my list for future videos. Thanks for suggesting it, and for all the great detail! 💪🔥
Thank you
For sure! Hope it was helpful! 🤓😊
Thanks a lot
You bet! Thanks for watching! 😊
Good explanation,,Thank you. !!
Yay!! Thanks for supporting the channel, and for such a nice comment! 🙏🌟
It should be nice to show how to install the CWAgent too, as it's needed for a few metrics (like the one showed about CPU), and it's not straightforward as the AWS documentations make it looks as well. (that's what I was expecting as a "tutorial for beginners")
Ooh, good point! I'll add this to my list for a future video. Thanks for the comment! 🙏🤓
🧡
Thank you!! 🥰
Can you please create a tutorial on how to create pipeline to auto generate a business report using Amazon Q? Example: New PDF raw data enters to S3. Then S3 syncs with Amazon Q. Then Amazon Q generate a daily report given a predefined set of business questions. Then, output a PDF report for business analysis based on the latest data.
Great suggestion! I definitely want to do more with Q. I'll add this to my list for future videos...thanks for suggesting it! 😊🌟🤓
Hey! Thanks once again for another fabulous tutorial! As always you have made CloudWatch a lot more understandable and doable and that's what I love about your series!! I can't wait to see the other new content, especially Bedrock! I had a little set back in my studies but I'm back in full swing and I'm shooting for late December to sit for my SAA exam! Thank you so much for all that you do for us! and as always, be well, be safe and Cheers!!!
WOOHOOOO!!! Good luck on the SAA exam! You got this! 💪🤓🔥
Thank you so much!!! I always appreciate your encouragement and the tools that make my journey a lot easier!!!@@TinyTechnicalTutorials
2) If i have one aws cw monitoring account and 400+ other aws account with cross account cross region setting enabled on them. Then those account metric data will get store to monitoring account or it will be at thos aws account only and monitoring account will fetch it from there...
For eg.. if i run query on grafana to see graph of top 100 cpu usage ec2 then how and from which place it will fetch the metric data??
Hi @FunVideo! 👋 I haven't set up something like that myself, but I know generally it's possible to consolidate metrics across accounts. Maybe this will help? adamtheautomator.com/cloudwatch-metrics/
Can you please create a tutorial on how to use Amazon Q specially on how to connect to an S3 source? The configurations needed are very confusing.
I definitely want to do some videos about Q! Stay tuned! 🤓🌟
@@TinyTechnicalTutorials Thanks!
Need some help on below things:
1) we have 400+ aws account which will share metric data with one monitoring account with cross account setting. And that monitoring account will intigrate with Grafana for reporting.. so if user run the report for 90 days or 6 month metric data... will there be any huge latancy?
If yes then what is your suggestiob to resolve this challange?
Hi again, @FunVideo! 🤓 I just responded on your other comment. Hope it helps!
