4.56 -> amazon cloudwatch is a component of aws
7.839 -> that monitors aws resources and other
10.96 -> user applications
12.24 -> running on the amazon infrastructure
14.559 -> this service
15.44 -> provides real-time monitoring of aws
18.24 -> resources
19.279 -> including amazon elastic block store
21.68 -> volumes
22.64 -> elastic load balancing instances elastic
25.599 -> compute cloud instances
27.439 -> and many more it's known for its metrics
30.4 -> alarms and logs
31.84 -> but also offers more capabilities that
34.16 -> give users
34.96 -> insight into their systems and
36.48 -> applications to dig deeper
38.879 -> into everything cloudwatch can do for
40.64 -> your business click the link above or in
42.64 -> the description below
46.96 -> amazon cloudwatch helps engineers it
49.84 -> admins and developers
51.28 -> identify and fix operational issues
53.84 -> within their aws resources
56.079 -> and apps and optimize performance using
58.719 -> log analytics
59.92 -> either in the cloud or on premises
62.719 -> cloudwatch includes specific features
64.96 -> for data collection
66.4 -> monitoring automation analysis and
69.28 -> compliance and security
70.96 -> including cloudwatch logs for quick
74.32 -> log queries and visualization unified
77.439 -> view
77.84 -> which creates dashboard views for
79.6 -> selected applications
81.28 -> graphs and other visualized cloud data
84.64 -> auto scaling which automates capacity
87.28 -> and resource planning
89.04 -> anomaly detection using machine learning
91.759 -> to detect
92.479 -> abnormal activity as it happens and many
95.28 -> more
96.4 -> cloudwatch offers several benefits for
98.56 -> organizations
99.52 -> using aws resources and applications
102.799 -> including effectively collecting metrics
105.6 -> for aws environments
107.92 -> increasing and optimizing operational
110.159 -> performance of aws
111.84 -> and on-premises resources providing
114.479 -> insight into correlations and other
116.399 -> relationships and system performance
118.88 -> and integration with other aws resources
122.32 -> among others however there are some
124.96 -> challenges
125.68 -> too cloudwatch costs more than most
128.399 -> third-party monitoring
129.759 -> and log tools many standard aws metrics
133.599 -> cannot be seen in units smaller than
135.76 -> one-minute intervals
137.44 -> advanced integration is mostly limited
139.84 -> to aws resources
142.08 -> and the more advanced features of
144.16 -> cloudwatch
145.12 -> require a high learning curve what do
148.16 -> you think
148.959 -> is cloudwatch the best way to monitor
151.2 -> your aws resources
153.28 -> let us know in the comments below and be
155.12 -> sure to hit that like button
170.64 -> you
