Classic (formerly "built-in") AWS metrics

For information about differences between classic services and other services, see Migrate from AWS classic (formerly "built-in") services to cloud services.

The table below lists all AWS metrics that Dynatrace collects by default when you enable AWS monitoring.

For all other metrics collected by Dynatrace per configurable AWS service, see the cloud services pages.
