PRTG comes with a variety of built-in AWS sensors for a number of services which allow for Amazon CloudWatch data to be effortlessly integrated into your monitoring solution. With PRTG, you can monitor cloud data centrally along with the data from your local IT infrastructure to get the most out of AWS cloud computing.

How PRTG works with Amazon CloudWatch

Monitor and analyze all Amazon instances

PRTG works with Amazon CloudWatch to monitor the instances of: Amazon EC2, RDS databases, Amazon EBS data carriers, ElastiCache, and Elastic Load Balancing. SQS and SNS data is also retrieved, and the configured alarms are monitored.

 

Monitor metrics and protocol files

While CloudWatch delivers CPU load, latencies, and request counters, PRTG lets you monitor the metrics and protocol files that are generated for your applications and services, such as memory usage, transaction volumes, and error messages.

 

Create data linkages for easier troubleshooting

PRTG extracts the CloudWatch data via AWS API calls, enabling you to link it to other monitoring data such as the router status. As a result, you'll be able to identify correlations while troubleshooting that might not show up when only using CloudWatch.
