Monitoring an Amazon Aurora DB Cluster

This section shows how to monitor Amazon Aurora. Aurora involves clusters of database servers that are connected in a replication topology. Thus, monitoring Aurora requires checking the health of the master server (which handles write operations) and the individual Aurora Replicas (which distribute the query workload among multiple servers).
