Amazon CloudWatch now allows customers to automatically enable Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) detailed monitoring across their AWS Organization. Customers can create enablement rules in CloudWatch Ingestion that automatically enable detailed monitoring for both existing and newly launched EC2 instances matching the rule scope, ensuring consistent metrics collection at 1-minute intervals across their EC2 instances.
EC2 detailed monitoring enablement rules can be scoped to the whole organization, specific accounts, or specific resources based on resource tags to standardize the configuration across EC2 instances. For example, the central DevOps team can create an enablement rule to automatically turn on detailed monitoring for EC2 instances with specific tags, e.g., env:production, and ensure Auto Scaling policies respond quickly to changes in instance utilization.
CloudWatch’s auto-enablement capability is available in all AWS commercial regions. Detailed monitoring metrics will be billed according to CloudWatch Pricing.
To learn more about org-wide EC2 detailed monitoring enablement, visit the Amazon CloudWatch documentation.
