AWS CloudWatch Agent Tutorial for EC2 Observability

By Meridian48 News Desk · Summarised from DEV Community ·

This tutorial demonstrates setting up AWS CloudWatch Agent on EC2 to collect OS-level metrics like memory and disk usage, plus Nginx logs. It covers two scenarios: adding the agent to an existing EC2 and bootstrapping a new one via User Data. The full pipeline includes CloudWatch Metrics, Logs, Dashboard, Alarm, and SNS email notifications.
