Amazon CloudWatch adds context to observability data in service consoles, accelerating analysis

Amazon CloudWatch now adds context to observability data, making it much easier for IT operators, application developers, and Site Reliability Engineers (SREs) to navigate related telemetry, visualize relationships between resources, and accelerate analysis. This new feature transforms disparate metrics and logs into real-time insights, to identify root cause of issues faster and improve operational efficiency.

With this feature, Amazon CloudWatch now automatically visualizes the relationships within observability data and underlying AWS resources, such as Amazon EC2 instances and AWS Lambda functions. This feature is integrated across the AWS Management Console, accessible from multiple entry points including CloudWatch widgets, CloudWatch alarms, CloudWatch Application Signals, and CloudWatch Container Insights. Selecting this feature opens a side panel where you can explore and dive deeper into related metrics and logs all without leaving your current view. By selecting other metrics or resources of interest within the panel, you can streamline your troubleshooting process.

This new capability is enabled by default in all commercial AWS Regions. To view and explore related telemetry and resources, we recommend updating to the latest version of Amazon CloudWatch agent.
