Example metric policy: Path-level metrics with overlapping rules - AWS Elemental MediaStore

End of support notice: On November 13, 2025, AWS will discontinue support for AWS Elemental MediaStore. After November 13, 2025, you will no longer be able to access the MediaStore console or MediaStore resources. For more information, visit this blog post.

Example metric policy: Path-level metrics with overlapping rules

This example policy indicates that AWS Elemental MediaStore should send metrics to Amazon CloudWatch at the container level. In addition, MediaStore should send metrics for two folders: sports/football/saturday and sports/football.

The metrics for MediaStore requests to the sports/football/saturday folder have a CloudWatch dimension of ObjectGroupName=footballGroup1. Because objects that are stored in the sports/football folder match both rules, CloudWatch displays two data points for these objects: one with a dimension of ObjectGroupName=footballGroup1 and the second with a dimension of ObjectGroupName=footballGroup2.
