What you'll do

In this lab, you will monitor applications by using an Amazon CloudWatch dashboard.

  1. Connect to the web servers that are running behind a load balancer
  2. Create a CloudWatch metric filter for 404 errors on each web server
  3. Create a custom CloudWatch dashboard to display the memory, CPU, and load balancer metrics
  4. Test the dashboard by simulating activity

Note: Once you begin the lab, you will not be able to pause, save, or exit and then return to your lab. Please ensure that you have set aside enough time to complete the lab before you start.
