Cloudwatch is great for Application Logs!

Commenti: Our experience has been good and has helped us catch issues and solve them before anyone notices!

Aspetti positivi:

It is easy to go into Amazon Cloudwatch and see if we are having any issues with our websites or APIs.

Aspetti negativi:

So far we have had no issues with Amazon Cloudwatch.

CloudWatch gives x-ray vision of AWS resource

Commenti: Using CloudWatch is an indispensable tool to keep track of our logs, metrics, events, alerts, etc. We use its metrics to alert us when something is not right in our infrastructure. We also keep track of application logs coming from different resources to simplify finding and resolving bugs. We also use it to automate tasks we need to run at scheduled times.

Aspetti positivi:

It is easy-to-use monitoring and observability service that readily works with AWS services.

Aspetti negativi:

Accessing and searching log data can get more difficult as you start to have more log data and when logging data from multiple AWS resources if you don't use Log Insights.

Monitoring of instances

Commenti: Absolutely wonderful product for monitoring of all the AWS resources together and checkout any gaps and issues effectively. We can create realtime metrics and charts of the EC2 resources.

Aspetti positivi:

1. It's very scalable and monitoring EC2, services is an easy and quick job with Cloudwatch. 2. Intuitive UI and highly integrable with all the AWS resources which facilate automated monitoring. 3. Customize dashboard according to queries and quick report availability.

Aspetti negativi:

1. Analysis of logs is somehow a tough job. 2. Complex implementation and filter addition. 3. Cost are based on the monitoring of resource.

Great monitoring service

Aspetti positivi:

I was able to capture metrics of my EC2 instances every minute and take action quickly if necessary.

Aspetti negativi:

It is imperative to install the CloudWatch agent on instances using my custom AMI.

Overall it is Okay

Commenti: We have been using Cloudwatch for quite some time to monitor our AWS Infra which includes ECS, Opensearch, Redis, EC2 InstancesIt performs well in terms of logs and metric queryingAlerts set up performs well

Aspetti positivi:

We can view logs and metrics in real-time and even those in the pastMore or less easy to configure and useNotification is available based on alertsOptimized for AWS Services

Aspetti negativi:

It quite costlyThe interface could have been easier to use

Monitor Your AWS Applications The Performance , Metrics And Logging

Commenti: Cloudwatch gives you the logging data to solve your problems and bugs with alerting functionality. Easily get the information to troubleshoot. The alerting is a little complex to setup.

Aspetti positivi:

- easy to use - builtin with AWS - long data retention period - collect and track your metrics

Aspetti negativi:

- it's only basic monitoring - the alerting could be better - it has a limitation for event fields

Great for log metrics

Aspetti positivi:

Great for logging app metrics, cloud watch alarms and visualization

Aspetti negativi:

Nothing so far but yes need to aee integration with third party

CloudWatch is a reliable and powerful tool for monitoring and managing AWS resources and application

Commenti: Amazon CloudWatch is a reliable and powerful tool for monitoring and managing AWS resources and applications. The service offers a comprehensive set of monitoring capabilities, including custom metrics, logs, alarms, and dashboards, and integrates seamlessly with other AWS services.

Aspetti positivi:

Amazon CloudWatch provides a comprehensive set of monitoring capabilities, including custom metrics, logs, alarms, and dashboards. This allows you to gain deep visibility into the performance and behavior of your applications and infrastructure.

Aspetti negativi:

While Amazon CloudWatch provides excellent monitoring and management capabilities for AWS resources, it has limited support for monitoring resources outside of AWS. This can be a limitation if you have a hybrid infrastructure or use third-party services.

Review of Amazon Cloudwatch

Commenti: Cloudwatch is used best when it is used with all the other AWS services. I wouldn't really say you use Cloudwatch by itself, it's always to check or report on another service. With that said, Cloudwatch really excels at monitoring once you put in the time to setup metrics. Otherwise, you sit on a wealth of potential data that ends up not being used.

Aspetti positivi:

Cloudwatch is best used when we try to identify/debug our code. We check logs for our cloud functions through cloudwatch and due to it being realtime it allows us to quickly diagnose any issues. By making our functions verbose, our logs become clear to sort through as well. Cloudwatch also allows us to monitor our servers load. We have some automations to post on our channels when certain servers have too much load, low memory, or when too many error events have occurred in a short period. This has allowed us to resolve issues as fast as possible.

Aspetti negativi:

I think the slowness can sometimes be a limiting factor. Opening several pages of logs at the same time will slow down the system. This happens to me because I usually am trying to find specific text that was output, but there is no search for data within the log files, just for the filenames of the log files (which in my case is not helpful).

CloudWatch for Log Analysis and Server Healthchecks

Aspetti positivi:

The possibility to customize CloudWatch to observe server logs in order to perform regular healthchecks and the status of Servers used in our Web Application

Aspetti negativi:

CloudWatch might be overwhelming at first and hard to configure. Also as CloudWatch is AWS service it does not allow to monitor servers from outside of AWS, so in case the infrastructure is a mix of different Cloud Providers, there are some much better tools in the market

Amazing monitoring tool

Aspetti positivi:

Our team is using cloud watch to monitor log files, monitor issues and changes of the AWS resources in the real time. As a company we get lots of benefits since we can identify the issues before impact those to our project.

Aspetti negativi:

This is expensive product and some of the companies cannot afford it.

CloudWatch - Monitor applications both in on-premsis and AWS cloud.

Commenti: Go to service to observe AWS service operations.

Aspetti positivi:

The cloud watch service from AWS helps to integrate the other services and helps to monitor its daily services. The logs and statistics are stored here for us to debug and go analytics on top of it .

Aspetti negativi:

The cloud watch UI could have been improved to give modern look as sometimes its difficult to debug longer logs generated by any application. The highlighting of error in the log will help the developers a lot.

CloudWatch brings visibility to your AWS stack

Commenti: You don't have to use AWS for very long to have this happen: you've got instances and tasks and containers and all kinds of "machines", whether physical or virtual, running all over the place, and you want to figure out how to see what's going on internally with one of them. Maybe you just want a quick look at the Apache logs. In the "good old days" you'd just SSH into the instance. But with Docker and virtualization and everything, that's not so easily said and done anymore. Enter CloudWatch.
Think of it as a centralized logging store. When you start up containers and instances and tasks and such, you can ask AWS to automatically have whatever you are spinning up log its internals to CloudWatch. You can then jump into CW anytime you need to take a look at what's happening inside that box. Need Apache logs? They're right there. Even better, they are searchable using a good (but not great) interface. Also, CW will bring together the logs from separate ECS tasks into one log group, if you want. So if you have a handful of tasks running, you can search across all of them in one go and find the misbehaving one much more easily than SSH'ing into 6 instances trying to locate the culprit.
Extra bonus: with just a teeny bit of coding on your end you can actually have your application log items to CW directly. Use Lambda to monitor it, and push that to Slack, and you've got custom monitoring, built into your AWS stacks. CW is critical to doing AWS right.

Aspetti positivi:

* One-stop shopping for visibility on all your instances (and tasks and sub-instances and whatever else that AWS makes it so easy to spin up but then so hard to keep track of later) * Easy to hook into Lambda (which can then call to Slack or some other service) so that you can get push notifications about whatever's happening

Aspetti negativi:

* The search facility is not as good as it probably could be. If you have a line of output from a log, for instance, and you want to see where that line of output came from, and you do not know which log group it's from, you are out of luck. You can only search inside a log or log group, which means you have to know where the output came from to start with, but that might be exactly the issue you're trying to figure out in the first place: where is this output coming from. * AWS instances and tasks automatically start up with CW integration but that can quickly result in loads of orphaned CW log groups and such if you then do away with the instances but don't remember to go into CW and kill those as well.

Keep an Eye on Everything

AWS CloudWatch : logs monitoring service

Commenti: AWS CloudWatch helps me to monitor and give insights of the services available in my AWS cloud account.I configured the alarms and actions if an alarming situation occurs like disk usage or CPU utilisation is high.if a threshold condition met CloudWatch helps me to tackle unwanted situation and provide good performance.

Aspetti positivi:

AWS CloudWatch is first of all easy to use. I integrated AWS CloudWatch with most of the Amazon services such as EC2,VPC etc.. One can used AWS CloudWatch to monitor and track everything happening in your AWS account.The best part is one can monitor most of the services status CPU utilisation,memory usage,disk usage.one can use cloudwatch everywhere irrespective of whatever the service it is.

Aspetti negativi:

There is no such dislike for AWS CloudWatch. Only the CloudWatch dashboard is not user friendly unlike other monitoring tools present in the market.At the initial state it's a little bit confusing and time consuming to do setup.

my experience with Amazon CloudWatch

Commenti: overall experience with cloud watch was great is good I would recommend every who uses AWS should learn
cloud watch. metrics to monitor all services at single place set alarms on required conditions and action that should be taken like send notifications using SNS service which is easy to use with cloud watch or scale accordingly, cloud watch is must for monitoring AWS

Aspetti positivi:

Amazon CloudWatch is a monitoring service from AWS here you can easily monitor almost all services of AWS that you use and want to monitor, also at a single place that is of great use. we can create dashboards of selected matrics and multiple dashboards can make monitoring easy and fast alarms can be set on conditions which will help to take necessary measures accordingly.

Aspetti negativi:

CloudWatch is a great tool it does not have many flaws, there are a few minor issues like you have to learn how to set up a cloud watch for monitoring and It might take some time , custom metrics will cost you, some important metrics are not available like storage monitoring.

Monitoring tool for all your critical AWS services

Commenti: I am very pleased with the capabilities of AWS cloudwatch and would highly recommend it to all AWS customers

Aspetti positivi:

Event threshold, automated monitoring, email notifications, coverage for most of the critical AWS services.

Aspetti negativi:

Capability to use it for on-prem and other cloud services would be a great addition and make it a single source of truth.

Must have for your cloud infrastructure and application management

Commenti: Overall we are very happy with the cloudwatch monitoring tool and use it on daily basis to keep a check on our cloud infrastructure and applications.

Aspetti positivi:

Cloud computing monitoring, automated events management, Threshold violation monitor, proactive monitoring, email notifications

Aspetti negativi:

Supports most of the AWS services but missing a few newer services. Also we cannot monitor our on-premise HW with this.

Great Product and easy Laravel integration

Commenti: I have been pleased with Amazon Cloudwatch. It is used so widely that there is a large community of support around it. While I don't know that it is necessarily better than the alternatives, it is certainly easier in the case of those already using AWS

Aspetti positivi:

Being part of AWS, its very easy to start using and will be cheaper than most options. There are easy Laravel packages for integrating use, and it is simple to allow options for logging groups.

Aspetti negativi:

I only have two slight complaints with Cloudwatch. First, I wish querying multiple log groups was a little more intuitive. Second, the lack of creating nested log groups isn't great. Having many different environments throughout my development team, it is a bit annoying to have hundreds of log groups, even though splitting up the logs does help us immensely.

cloud watch best service

Aspetti positivi:

we can set the alarm and we can automate tasks based on certain thresholds like for cost management, EC2 scaling, etc., It is a single point to observe service matrix and logs.

Aspetti negativi:

seen no downside of cloudwatch since started using it
