With AWS monitoring integration, classic (formerly "built-in") services are monitored out-of-the-box. You can also monitor other AWS services that influence the performance of your AWS-hosted applications.
You can receive Amazon CloudWatch metrics for multiple predefined services. You can view graphs per service instance, with a set of dimensions, and create custom graphs that you can pin to your dashboards. You can reduce your CloudWatch costs and throttling by selecting which additional services to monitor. Additionally, for non-classic services, you can choose which metrics you want to monitor.
AWS cloud services monitored by default
As a result of AWS monitoring integration, some services are monitored out-of-the-box. Such services are marked as classic.
- Amazon Dynamo Database (classic) Amazon EC2 (classic) Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling (classic) AWS Lambda (classic) AWS Application and Network Load Balancer (classic) Elastic Load Balancer (classic) Amazon S3 (classic) Amazon RDS (classic) Amazon EBS (classic)
For information about differences between classic services and other services, see Migrate from AWS classic (formerly "built-in") services to cloud services.
Other AWS cloud services
In addition to cloud services monitored by default, you can monitor other AWS services that affect the performance of your AWS-hosted applications.

Cloud services with their respective Dynatrace entity types
Not all cloud services have Dynatrace entities created for them and can have tags imported from the cloud. Expand the table below to see cloud services with their respective Dynatrace entity types and to check if they have tags imported from the cloud provider.
For each non-built-in service, the CUSTOM_DEVICE dimension is generated based on the main dimension

Configuration API
To list all AWS-supported services on your cluster by the current version, use the AWS-supported services API.
Monitoring consumption
As of 2021, all cloud services consume DDUs. The amount of DDU consumption per service instance depends on the number of monitored metrics and their dimensions (each metric dimension results in the ingestion of 1 data point; 1 data point consumes 0.001 DDUs).
