# AWS CloudFormation CloudWatch Monitoring ## Overview Creates CloudWatch monitoring infrastructure using CloudFormation templates: metrics, alarms, dashboards, log groups, anomaly detection, synthesized canaries, and Application Signals. ## When to Use - Creating CloudWatch metrics and alarms for production infrastructure - Building CloudWatch dashboards for multi-region visualization - Implementing log groups with retention, encryption, and metric filters - Configuring anomaly detection and composite alarms - Setting up cross-stack references with Parameters and Outputs - Validating and deploying monitoring stacks with CloudFormation ## Instructions Follow these steps to create CloudWatch monitoring infrastructure with CloudFormation: ### 1. Define Alarm Parameters Specify metric namespaces, dimensions, and threshold values: ```yaml Parameters: ErrorRateThreshold: Type: Number Default: 5 Description: Error rate threshold for alarms (percentage) LatencyThreshold: Type: Number Default: 1000 Description: Latency threshold in milliseconds CpuUtilizationThreshold: Type: Number Default: 80 Description: CPU utilization threshold (percentage) LogRetentionDays: Type: Number Default: 30 AllowedValues: - 1 - 3 - 7 - 14 - 30 - 60 - 90 - 120 - 365 Description: Number of days to retain log events ``` ### 2. Create CloudWatch Alarms Set up alarms for CPU, memory,...
