AWS CloudFront¶

The core performance Metrics of AWS CloudFront include the total number of requests, data transfer volume, HTTP error rate, cache hit rate, and latency. These can help users evaluate and optimize the performance of the content delivery network.

Configuration¶

Install Func¶

It is recommended to enable the TrueWatch integration - extension - DataFlux Func (Automata): all prerequisites are automatically installed. Please continue with the script installation.

If you deploy Func yourself, refer to Self-deployed Func

Install Script¶

Note: Please prepare an Amazon AK that meets the requirements in advance (for simplicity, you can directly grant global read-only permission ReadOnlyAccess)

To synchronize monitoring data for AWS CloudFront cloud resources, we install the corresponding collection script: "TrueWatch Integration (AWS-Gateway Collection)" (ID: truewatch_aws_cloudfront).

After clicking [Install], enter the corresponding parameters: Amazon AK and Amazon account name.

Click [Deploy Start Script], and the system will automatically create a Startup script set and automatically configure the corresponding start-up script.

In addition, you can see the corresponding automatic trigger configuration in "Manage / Automatic Trigger Configuration". Click [Execute] to immediately execute once without waiting for the scheduled time. After a short wait, you can view the execution task records and corresponding logs.

We collect some configurations by default; for more details, see the Metrics section Customize Cloud Object Metrics

Verification¶

1. In "Manage / Automatic Trigger Configuration", confirm whether the corresponding task has an automatic trigger configuration, and at the same time, you can check the corresponding task records and logs for any abnormalities.
2. On the TrueWatch platform, under "Infrastructure / Custom", check if there is any asset information.
3. On the TrueWatch platform, under "Metrics", check if there is any corresponding monitoring data.

Metrics¶

After configuring Amazon CloudWatch, the default Measurement set is as follows. You can collect more Metrics through configuration. Amazon CloudWatch Metrics Details
