Lab 01: CloudWatch – Create Billing Alarm & Service Limits
Dive into CloudWatch, AWS’s monitoring service. This lab focuses on setting up billing alarms to manage costs effectively and keeping an eye on service limits to ensure your applications run smoothly within defined boundaries.
AWS billing notifications can be enabled using Amazon CloudWatch. CloudWatch is an Amazon Web Services service that monitors all of your AWS account activity. CloudWatch, in addition to billing notifications, provides infrastructure for monitoring apps, logs, metrics collecting, and other service metadata, as well as detecting activity in your AWS account usage.
AWS CloudWatch offers a number of metrics through which you can set your alarms. For example, you may set an alarm to warn you when a running instance’s CPU or memory utilization exceeds 90% or when the invoice amount exceeds $100. We get 10 alarms and 1,000 email notifications each month with an AWS free tier account.
