Amazon CloudWatch subscriptions for Infrastructure Performance
Infrastructure Performance subscriptions publish network performance metrics in five-minute periods to Amazon CloudWatch for any pair of inter Regions, inter-Availability Zones, or intra-Availability Zones that you optionally subscribe to. Once a subscription is enabled, performance metrics continue to publish to CloudWatch for those pairs until you unsubscribe any pair that you no longer want to publish performance metrics for.
Note
There's a separate CloudWatch metrics subscription charge for each inter-Region,
inter-Availability Zone, or intra-Availability Zone pair you subscribe to. You won't be charged
for any CloudWatch performance metrics that you unsubscribe from, or for any pair that you've not
enabled subscriptions for. For more information about pricing guidelines, see Amazon CloudWatch pricing
