# LambdaFunctionUtilizationMetric


Describes a utilization metric of an AWS Lambda function.

## Contents


 ** name **   <a name="computeoptimizer-Type-LambdaFunctionUtilizationMetric-name"></a>
The name of the utilization metric.  
The following utilization metrics are available:  
+  `Duration` - The amount of time that your function code spends processing an event.
+  `Memory` - The amount of memory used per invocation.
Type: String  
Valid Values: `Duration | Memory`   
Required: No

 ** statistic **   <a name="computeoptimizer-Type-LambdaFunctionUtilizationMetric-statistic"></a>
The statistic of the utilization metric.  
The Compute Optimizer API, AWS Command Line Interface (AWS CLI), and SDKs return utilization metrics using only the `Maximum` statistic, which is the highest value observed during the specified period.  
The Compute Optimizer console displays graphs for some utilization metrics using the `Average` statistic, which is the value of `Sum` / `SampleCount` during the specified period. For more information, see [Viewing resource recommendations](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/compute-optimizer/latest/ug/viewing-recommendations.html) in the * AWS Compute Optimizer User Guide*. You can also get averaged utilization metric data for your resources using Amazon CloudWatch. For more information, see the [Amazon CloudWatch User Guide](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonCloudWatch/latest/monitoring/WhatIsCloudWatch.html).  
Type: String  
Valid Values: `Maximum | Average`   
Required: No

 ** value **   <a name="computeoptimizer-Type-LambdaFunctionUtilizationMetric-value"></a>
The value of the utilization metric.  
Type: Double  
Required: No
