Amazon CloudWatch now allows you to query metrics data up to two weeks in the past using the Metrics Insights query source. CloudWatch Metrics Insights offers fast, flexible, SQL-based queries. This new capability allows you to display, aggregate, or slice and dice metrics data older than 3 hours, for enhanced visualization and investigation.
Customers creating dashboards and alarms to monitor dynamic groups of metrics over their resources and applications could visualize up to 3 hours of data when using Metrics Insights SQL queries. This enhancement helps customers identify trends and investigate impact for a longer period of time, even days after an event. This extended query time range helps improve the operational health of teams and ensures impacts are never missed.
Querying metrics data up to two weeks old with Metrics Insights is now available in commercial AWS regions.
The ability to query metrics data up to 2 weeks old is automatically available at no additional cost. Standard pricing applies for alarms, dashboards or API usage on Metrics Insights, see CloudWatch pricing for details. To learn more about metrics queries with Metrics Insights, visit the CloudWatch documentation.
