AWS: Alarming on Metric Math alternative












2















I am currently in the process of migrating some services to AWS and have hit a bit of a road block. I would like to be able to monitor the error percentage of a Lambda and create an Alarm if a certain threshold is breached. Currently the percentage error rate can be calculated with Metric Math, however alarms cannot be generated from this.



I was wondering if anyone know a way in that I could push the metrics require to calculate the percentage, Error and Invocation, to a Lambda and have the Lambda perform the calculation and create the SNS alarm?



Thanks!

CloudWatch just released the Alarms on MetricMath expressions.



https://aws.amazon.com/about-aws/whats-new/2018/11/amazon-cloudwatch-launches-ability-to-add-alarms-on-metric-math-expressions/



So basically you just need to:




  1. Go to CloudWatch

  2. Go to Alarms

  3. Create Alarm

  4. Add your metrics

  5. Add a MetricMath expression

  6. Optionally, add other properties for the alarm

  7. Add the actions that you want to be executed
