Monitoring is essential for maintaining modern cloud environments’ reliability, performance, and security. As cloud systems grow more complex, proactive alerting is critical for detecting issues before they impact your business.
In this Challenge Cloud Lab, you’ll test your AWS monitoring skills by building a robust alerting system using Amazon CloudWatch and Amazon SNS. Your AWS environment comes with EC2, S3, and DynamoDB resources. Your task is to design and implement a real-time monitoring solution that identifies operational risks. You’ll create and configure CloudWatch alarms for key performance and security metrics and set up notifications so your team can respond rapidly to critical events.
