Amazon DynamoDB Accelerator (DAX) monitoring

  • How-to guide
  • 12-min read
  • Published Jul 06, 2020

Dynatrace ingests metrics for multiple preselected namespaces, including Amazon DynamoDB Accelerator (DAX). You can view metrics for each service instance, split metrics into multiple dimensions, and create custom charts that you can pin to your dashboards.

Prerequisites

To enable monitoring for this service, you need:

  • Any version of ActiveGate in both Dynatrace SaaS and Managed deployments.

    For role-based access (whether in a SaaS or Managed deployment), you need an ActiveGate installed on an Amazon EC2 host.

  • An updated AWS monitoring policy to include the additional AWS services.
    To update the AWS IAM policy, use the JSON below, containing the monitoring policy (permissions) for all cloud services.

If you don't want to add permissions to all services, and just select permissions for certain services, consult the table below. The table contains a set of permissions that are required for All AWS cloud services and, for each cloud service, a list of optional permissions specific to that service.

Permissions required for AWS monitoring integration:
  • "cloudwatch:GetMetricData"
  • "cloudwatch:GetMetricStatistics"
  • "cloudwatch:ListMetrics"
  • "sts:GetCallerIdentity"
  • "tag:GetResources"
  • "tag:GetTagKeys"
  • "ec2:DescribeAvailabilityZones"

In this example, from the complete list of permissions you need to select

  • "apigateway:GET" for Amazon API Gateway

  • "cloudwatch:GetMetricData", "cloudwatch:GetMetricStatistics", "cloudwatch:ListMetrics", "sts:GetCallerIdentity", "tag:GetResources", "tag:GetTagKeys", and "ec2:DescribeAvailabilityZones" for All AWS cloud services.

  • To disable monitoring of built-in services, you need Environment ActiveGate version 1.245+ and Dynatrace version 1.247+.

Enable monitoring

To learn how to enable service monitoring, see Enable service monitoring.

View service metrics

You can view the service metrics in your Dynatrace environment either on the custom device overview page or on your Dashboards page.

View metrics on the custom device overview page

To access the custom device overview page

  1. Go to Technologies & Processes.
  2. Filter by service name and select the relevant custom device group.
  3. Once you select the custom device group, you're on the custom device group overview page.
  4. The custom device group overview page lists all instances (custom devices) belonging to the group. Select an instance to view the custom device overview page.

View metrics on your dashboard

After you add the service to monitoring, a preset dashboard containing all recommended metrics is automatically listed on your Dashboards page. To look for specific dashboards, filter by Preset and then by Name.

AWS presets
AWS presets

For existing monitored services, you might need to resave your credentials for the preset dashboard to appear on the Dashboards page. To resave your credentials, go to Settings > Cloud and virtualization > AWS, select the desired AWS instance, and then select Save.

You can't make changes on a preset dashboard directly, but you can clone and edit it. To clone a dashboard, open the browse menu (…) and select Clone.

To remove a dashboard from the dashboards page, you can hide it. To hide a dashboard, open the browse menu (…) and select Hide.

Hiding a dashboard doesn't affect other users.

To check the availability of preset dashboards for each AWS service, see the list below.
