There are more AWS SDK examples available in the [AWS Doc SDK Examples](https://github.com/awsdocs/aws-doc-sdk-examples) GitHub repo.

# Scenarios for CloudWatch using AWS SDKs
<a name="cloudwatch_code_examples_scenarios"></a>

The following code examples show you how to implement common scenarios in CloudWatch with AWS SDKs. These scenarios show you how to accomplish specific tasks by calling multiple functions within CloudWatch or combined with other AWS services. Each scenario includes a link to the complete source code, where you can find instructions on how to set up and run the code. 

Scenarios target an intermediate level of experience to help you understand service actions in context.
