Amazon CloudWatch Application Signals

Amazon CloudWatch Application Signals

Use CloudWatch Application Signals for comprehensive observability of your cloud-based applications. It enables real-time service health dashboards and helps you track long-term performance trends against your business goals. The application-centric view provides you with unified visibility across your applications, services, and dependencies, so you can proactively monitor and efficiently triage any issues that may arise, ensuring optimal customer experience.

Application Signals provides the following benefits:

  • Automatically collect metrics and traces from your applications, and display key metrics such as call volume, availability, latency, faults, and errors.
  • Create and monitor service level objectives (SLOs).
  • See a map of your application topology that Application Signals automatically discovers, that gives you a visual representation of your applications, dependencies, and their connectivity.

Application Signals works with CloudWatch RUM, CloudWatch Synthetics canaries, and Amazon Web Services Service Catalog AppRegistry, to display your client pages, Synthetics canaries, and application names within dashboards and maps.

Arguments

  • config: Optional configuration of credentials, endpoint, and/or region.

    • credentials :

      • creds :

        • access_key_id : AWS access key ID
        • secret_access_key : AWS secret access key
        • session_token : AWS temporary session token
      • profile : The name of a profile to use. If not given, then the default profile is used.

      • anonymous : Set anonymous credentials.

    • endpoint : The complete URL to use for the constructed client.

    • region : The AWS Region used in instantiating the client.

    • close_connection : Immediately close all HTTP connections.

    • timeout : The time in seconds till a timeout exception is thrown when attempting to make a connection. The default is 60 seconds.

    • s3_force_path_style : Set this to true to force the request to use path-style addressing, i.e. http://s3.amazonaws.com/BUCKET/KEY.

    • sts_regional_endpoint : Set sts regional endpoint resolver to regional or legacy https://docs.aws.amazon.com/sdkref/latest/guide/feature-sts-regionalized-endpoints.html

  • credentials: Optional credentials shorthand for the config parameter

    • creds :

      • secret_access_key : AWS secret access key
      • session_token : AWS temporary session token
    • profile : The name of a profile to use. If not given, then the default profile is used.

    • anonymous : Set anonymous credentials.

  • endpoint: Optional shorthand for complete URL to use for the constructed client.

  • region: Optional shorthand for AWS Region used in instantiating the client.

Returns

A client for the service. You can call the service's operations using syntax like svc$operation(...), where svc is the name you've assigned to the client. The available operations are listed in the Operations section.
