Why monitor?
Slide 1 / 5Monitoring means collecting data about your resources to understand how they're performing — and to act before users notice problems.
Good monitoring answers: • Is the application healthy right now? • Is it getting slower or more expensive over time? • Who changed what, and when? • Are we following our own rules and the law?
AWS provides a service for each question.
