CloudWatch metrics that you can collect with CloudWatch RUM

The tables in this section lists the metrics that you automatically collect with CloudWatch RUM from web applications, mobile applications, or both. You can see these metrics in the CloudWatch console. For more information, see View available metrics.

You can also optionally send extended metrics to CloudWatch. For more information, see Extended metrics.

These metrics are published in the metric namespace named AWS/RUM. All of the following metrics are published with an application_name dimension. The value of this dimension is the name of the app monitor. Some metrics are also published with additional dimensions, as listed in the following table.

Web metrics
Metric Unit Description

HttpStatusCodeCount

Count

The count of HTTP responses in the application, by their response status code.

These are calculated based on http_event RUM events that result in 4xx codes.

Http5xxCount

Count

The count of HTTP responses in the application, with 5xx response status code.

These are calculated based on http_event RUM events that result in 5xx codes.

Http5xxCountPerSession

Count

These are calculated based on http_event RUM events that result in 5xx codes.

JsErrorCount

Count

The count of JavaScript error events ingested.

JsErrorCountPerSession

Count

The count of JavaScript error events ingested in a session.

JsErrorCountPerPageView

Count

The count of JavaScript error events ingested in a page review.

NavigationFrustratedTransaction

Count

The count of navigation events with a duration higher than the frustrating threshold, which is 8000ms. The duration of navigation events is tracked in the PerformanceNavigationDuration metric.

NavigationSatisfiedTransaction

Count

The count of navigation events with a duration that is less than the Apdex objective, which is 2000ms. The duration of navigation events is tracked in the PerformanceNavigationDuration metric.

NavigationToleratedTransaction

Count

The count of navigation events with a duration between 2000ms and 8000ms. The duration of navigation events is tracked in the PerformanceNavigationDuration metric.

PageViewCount

Count

The count of page view events ingested by the app monitor.

This is calculated by counting the page_view_event RUM events.

PageViewCountPerSession

Count

The count of page view events in a session.

PerformanceResourceDuration

Milliseconds

The duration of a resource event.

Additional dimensions:

  • event_details.file.type is the file type of the resource event, such as a stylesheet, document, image, script, or font.

  • event_type The type of event.

PerformanceNavigationDuration

Milliseconds

The duration of a navigation event.

RumEventPayloadSize

Bytes

The size of every event ingested by CloudWatch RUM. You can also use the SampleCount statistic for this metric to monitor the number of events that an app monitor is ingesting.

SessionCount

Count

The count of session start events ingested by the app monitor. In other words, the number of new sessions started.

SessionDuration

Milliseconds

The duration of a session. These are calculated based on the time between first and last events in a session.

TimeOnPage

Milliseconds

The duration of a page view.

These are calculated based on the time until next page view, except for the final page in a session where it's the time between first and last events on that page.

WebVitalsCumulativeLayoutShift

None

Tracks the value of the cumulative layout shift events.

WebVitalsFirstInputDelay

Milliseconds

Tracks the value of the first input delay events.

WebVitalsLargestContentfulPaint

Milliseconds

Tracks the value of the largest contentful paint events.

WebVitalsInteractionToNextPaint

Milliseconds

Tracks the value of the interaction to next paint events.

You can configure extended metrics for your mobile application to provide additional dimensions for analysis.

Mobile metrics
Metric Unit Description

ANRCount

Count

For Android only: The number of Application Not Responding (ANR) incidents, occurring when the application is unresponsive for more than 5 seconds, resulting in application crash.

AppHangCount

ColdAppLaunchFrustratedTransaction

Count

ColdAppLaunchSatisfiedTransaction

Count

The number of cold app launches that completed in less than 2 seconds, providing a satisfactory user experience.

ColdAppLaunchToleratedTransaction

Count

The number of cold app launches that completed between 2 and 8 seconds, providing a tolerable, but not ideal, user experience.

ColdLaunchTime

Milliseconds

Time taken to launch the application from a terminated state.

For Android: Time from Application onCreate until the first Activity finishes creating.

For iOS: Time from application start (determined by sysctl process start command) until didBecomeActiveNotification.

CrashCount

Count

The number of unexpected application terminations caused by unhandled exceptions or OS termination.

For Android: Crashes due to unhandled exceptions or system termination.

For iOS: Crashes due to unhandled exceptions, fatal errors, or system termination.

DroppedSpansCount

Count

The number of spans that were dropped because they exceeded the maximum size limit of 30KB per span.

Http4xxCount

Count

Records the number of HTTP client errors encountered by the web or mobile application during HTTP requests.

Http5xxCount

Count

Records the number of HTTP server errors encountered by the web or mobile application during HTTP requests.

LogPayloadSize

Bytes
