Tags -> (list)

The Amazon Web Services tags that are used by resources in the resource collection.

Tags help you identify and organize your Amazon Web Services resources. Many Amazon Web Services services support tagging, so you can assign the same tag to resources from different services to indicate that the resources are related. For example, you can assign the same tag to an Amazon DynamoDB table resource that you assign to an Lambda function. For more information about using tags, see the Tagging best practices whitepaper.

Each Amazon Web Services tag has two parts.

  • A tag key (for example, CostCenter , Environment , Project , or Secret ). Tag keys are case-sensitive.
  • An optional field known as a tag value (for example, 111122223333 , Production , or a team name). Omitting the tag value is the same as using an empty string. Like tag keys , tag values are case-sensitive.

Together these are known as key -value pairs.

Warning

The string used for a key in a tag that you use to define your resource coverage must begin with the prefix Devops-guru- . The tag key might be DevOps-Guru-deployment-application or devops-guru-rds-application . When you create a key , the case of characters in the key can be whatever you choose. After you create a key , it is case-sensitive. For example, DevOps Guru works with a key named devops-guru-rds and a key named DevOps-Guru-RDS , and these act as two different keys . Possible key /value pairs in your application might be Devops-Guru-production-application/RDS or Devops-Guru-production-application/containers .

The specific reference values used to evaluate the Performance Insights. For more information, see `` PerformanceInsightsReferenceComparisonValues `` .

ReferenceScalar -> (structure)

A scalar value DevOps Guru for a metric that DevOps Guru compares to actual metric values. This reference value is used to determine if an actual metric value should be considered anomalous.

Value -> (double)

The reference value.

ReferenceMetric -> (structure)

A metric that DevOps Guru compares to actual metric values. This reference metric is used to determine if an actual metric should be considered anomalous.

MetricQuery -> (structure)

A query to be processed on the metric.

Metric -> (string)

The name of the meteric used used when querying an Performance Insights GetResourceMetrics API for anomaly metrics.

Valid values for Metric are:

  • db.load.avg - a scaled representation of the number of active sessions for the database engine.
  • db.sampledload.avg - the raw number of active sessions for the database engine.

If the number of active sessions is less than an internal Performance Insights threshold, db.load.avg and db.sampledload.avg are the same value. If the number of active sessions is greater than the internal threshold, Performance Insights samples the active sessions, with db.load.avg showing the scaled values, db.sampledload.avg showing the raw values, and db.sampledload.avg less than db.load.avg . For most use cases, you can query db.load.avg only.

GroupBy -> (structure)

The specification for how to aggregate the data points from a Performance Insights GetResourceMetrics API query. The Performance Insights query returns all of the dimensions within that group, unless you provide the names of specific dimensions within that group. You can also request that Performance Insights return a limited number of values for a dimension.

The metric statistics during the anomalous period detected by DevOps Guru;

(structure)

A statistic in a Performance Insights collection.

Type -> (string)

The statistic type.

Value -> (double)

The value of the statistic.

StatsAtBaseline -> (list)

Typical metric statistics that are not considered anomalous. When DevOps Guru analyzes metrics, it compares them to StatsAtBaseline to help determine if they are anomalous.

(structure)

A statistic in a Performance Insights collection.

Type -> (string)

The statistic type.

Value -> (double)

The value of the statistic.

AssociatedInsightId -> (string)

The ID of the insight that contains this anomaly. An insight is composed of related anomalies.

ResourceCollection -> (structure)

A collection of Amazon Web Services resources supported by DevOps Guru. The two types of Amazon Web Services resource collections supported are Amazon Web Services CloudFormation stacks and Amazon Web Services resources that contain the same Amazon Web Services tag. DevOps Guru can be configured to analyze the Amazon Web Services resources that are defined in the stacks or that are tagged using the same tag key . You can specify up to 500 Amazon Web Services CloudFormation stacks.

CloudFormation -> (structure)

An array of the names of Amazon Web Services CloudFormation stacks. The stacks define Amazon Web Services resources that DevOps Guru analyzes. You can specify up to 500 Amazon Web Services CloudFormation stacks.

StackNames -> (list)

An array of CloudFormation stack names.

(string)

Tags -> (list)

The Amazon Web Services tags that are used by resources in the resource collection.

Tags help you identify and organize your Amazon Web Services resources. Many Amazon Web Services services support tagging, so you can assign the same tag to resources from different services to indicate that the resources are related. For example, you can assign the same tag to an Amazon DynamoDB table resource that you assign to an Lambda function. For more information about using tags, see the Tagging best practices whitepaper.

Each Amazon Web Services tag has two parts.

  • A tag key (for example, CostCenter , Environment , Project , or Secret ). Tag keys are case-sensitive.
  • An optional field known as a tag value (for example, 111122223333 , Production , or a team name). Omitting the tag value is the same as using an empty string. Like tag keys , tag values are case-sensitive.

Together these are known as key -value pairs.

Warning

The string used for a key in a tag that you use to define your resource coverage must begin with the prefix Devops-guru- . The tag key might be DevOps-Guru-deployment-application or devops-guru-rds-application . When you create a key , the case of characters in the key can be whatever you choose. After you create a key , it is case-sensitive. For example, DevOps Guru works with a key named devops-guru-rds and a key named DevOps-Guru-RDS , and these act as two different keys . Possible key /value pairs in your application might be Devops-Guru-production-application/RDS or Devops-Guru-production-application/containers .
