Description

CloudWatch is Amazon’s monitoring and observability service, designed to help those in the IT industry who are interested in optimizing resource utilization, visualizing operational health, and eventually increasing infrastructure performance. This book helps IT administrators, DevOps engineers, network engineers, and solutions architects to make optimum use of this cloud service for effective infrastructure productivity. You’ll start with a brief introduction to monitoring and Amazon CloudWatch and its core functionalities. Next, you’ll get to grips with CloudWatch features and their usability. Once the book has helped you develop your foundational knowledge of CloudWatch, you’ll be able to build your practical skills in monitoring and alerting various Amazon Web Services, such as EC2, EBS, RDS, ECS, EKS, DynamoDB, AWS Lambda, and ELB, with the help of real-world use cases. As you progress, you'll also learn how to use CloudWatch to detect anomalous behavior, set alarms, visualize logs and metrics, define automated actions, and rapidly troubleshoot issues. Finally, the book will take you through monitoring AWS billing and costs.

Easy to understand book for the novice but covers in depth concepts for the advanced user. takes one through the basics of monitoring in AWS for example; how to create alerts and dashboards in Cloudwatch. Then in the second section it goes into depth on monitoring and alerting on popular AWS services using Cloudwatch. The last part of the book brings it all together in very well written 'Best Practices' section. Enjoyable tech book that reads very well. i know some tech books can drag on with regurgitating facts, but the Author does an excellent job of explaining key concepts then give amazing in depth examples to actually build and monitor the services. Highly recommend this book!
