Overall Satisfaction with Amazon CloudWatch

Amazon CloudWatch assists us in monitoring the performance of our applications, resource use, and overall operation health. Our employees must comply to a CloudWatch threshold anytime they use our amazon EC2 instances, as well as whenever an employee is logged in to the EC2 instance for hours longer than those given to them. Also, they must comply to the threshold if they do anything that could compromise the application's health and operation.
  • EC2 instances are easy to integrate into a system
  • Simple to use
  • Need improvement on dashboards
  • Improve altering regarding unusual IP addresses
  • Operational health of the application
  • Monitoring tools
  • Set up alerts for important metrics
  • Collect system logs efficiently
In comparison to its competitors, Amazon CloudWatch is efficient, reliable, and has a fast response time, and it maximizes an application's life while also providing the best load balance and storage. The services that Amazon CloudWatch provides are far better and cheaper for the prices associated with them.

Amazon Elastic Block Store (EBS)
Amazon CloudWatch is best suited in a large firm with many employees, where machines work overtime and manual labour is ineffective at monitoring software longevity. In small firms, when each person can manually keep track of their application threshold, it is less suitable.
