Monitoring Multi-party approval with Amazon CloudWatch
You can monitor Multi-party approval using CloudWatch, which collects raw data and processes it into readable, near real-time metrics. These statistics are kept for 15 months, so that you can access historical information and gain a better perspective on how your web application or service is performing. You can also set alarms that watch for certain thresholds, and send notifications or take actions when those thresholds are met. For more information, see the Amazon CloudWatch User Guide.
CloudWatch collects metrics that track the usage of some AWS resources. These metrics correspond to AWS service quotas. Tracking these metrics can help you proactively manage your quotas. For more information, see Visualizing your service quotas and setting alarms in the Amazon CloudWatch User Guide.
Service quota usage metrics are in the AWS/Usage namespace and are collected every minute. Currently, the only metric name in this namespace that CloudWatch publishes is ResourceCount. This
metric is published with the dimensions Resource, Service, and
Type. The Resource dimension specifies the type of resource being tracked. For example, the ResourceCount metric with the dimensions
"Service": "Multi-party approval", "Type": "Resource" and "Resource":
"IdentitySource" indicates the number of IdentitySource resources in your account.
The following tables list the metrics and dimensions for Multi-party approval.
