Implementation

Select your implementation path based on your development environment:

SDK implementation

SDK Type SDK Setup Custom Metrics API Reference
Go SDK Complete Setup Guide Go Metrics API Go Actions and Data Types

Implementation workflow

Each implementation follows a two-step process:

  1. Complete Setup Guide (METRICS.md) — Infrastructure deployment, AWS infrastructure configuration, fleet setup, and Grafana dashboard configuration.

  2. API Implementation Guide (CUSTOM_METRICS.md) — Language-specific SDK usage, metric types, custom metrics creation, and advanced configuration.

Verification

  1. Validate metrics flow by checking your Amazon Managed Service for Prometheus workspace or Amazon CloudWatch console for incoming telemetry data.

  2. Check dashboard visibility in Amazon Managed Grafana using the pre-built dashboards.

  3. Test custom metrics by verifying they appear in your monitoring dashboards.

Note

After completing implementation, return to this page and go to the Available metrics page.
