(Optional) Step 6: Monitor MediaPackage activity

Use Amazon CloudWatch to track MediaPackage activity, such as the counts of bytes that MediaPackage has received and sent, response times, and request counts. Metrics are grouped first by the service namespace, and then by the various dimension combinations within each namespace.

To view metrics using the CloudWatch console

  1. Open the CloudWatch console at https://console.aws.amazon.com/cloudwatch/.

  2. In the navigation pane, choose Metrics.

  3. Under All metrics, choose the AWS/MediaPackage namespace.

  4. Select the metric dimension to view the metrics (for example, choose channel to view metrics per channel).

For a list of MediaPackage metrics, see AWS Elemental MediaPackage VOD content metrics.
