This is a good book for System Administrators/SREs to set up useful and important monitoring/alarms/dashboards of AWS services. It has 2 sections. Section 1 is more an introduction to AWS CloudWatch, Events, Alarms, Logs, Metrics and Dashboards. Section 2 is the centerpiece of this book with many step by step guide to set up useful monitoring for different AWS services, e.g. EC2, ECS, EKS, Fargate, DB services (RDS, Dynamo, ElastiCache, Document DB, RedShift), Serverless (Lambda, API Gateways, SQS, SNS, Steps, tracing with X-Ray), Big Data (ETL, Kinesis, CloudTrail, Glue), Storages (EBS, S3, EFS, FSx), Networking (VPC, flowlogs, AppMesh, CloudMap, Route 53). The last Chapter is a summary of best practices. It shows important metrics to be monitored for different services, e.g. Average Queue Length (AQL) for EBS volume.

    Easy to understand book for the novice but covers in depth concepts for the advanced user. takes one through the basics of monitoring in AWS for example; how to create alerts and dashboards in Cloudwatch. Then in the second section it goes into depth on monitoring and alerting on popular AWS services using Cloudwatch. The last part of the book brings it all together in very well written 'Best Practices' section. Enjoyable tech book that reads very well. i know some tech books can drag on with regurgitating facts, but the Author does an excellent job of explaining key concepts then give amazing in depth examples to actually build and monitor the services. Highly recommend this book!
