Customize monitoring in Accelerate

To customize monitoring of your cloud resources based on your application needs:

1. Create a custom monitoring policy. See Modifying the Accelerate alarm default configuration.

2. Apply a custom policy to resources using tags. See Monitoring in Accelerate

3. Route alerts to the resource owner. See Tag-based alert notification.

You can use the following CloudWatch dashboards to explore how many of your resources are targeted by AMS monitoring and tagging, and how many are not. In your account, navigate to the CloudWatch dashboards console, and select one of the following:

• AMS-Alarm-Manager-Reporting-Dashboard

• AMS-Resource-Tagger-Reporting-Dashboard

For a complete description of the dashboard metrics, see:
