AWS lambda metricset

edit

AWS Lambda monitors functions and sends metrics to Amazon CloudWatch. These metrics include total invocations, errors, duration, throttles, dead-letter queue errors, and iterator age for stream-based invocations.

AWS Permissions

edit

Some specific AWS permissions are required for IAM user to collect AWS EBS metrics.

ec2:DescribeRegions
cloudwatch:GetMetricData
cloudwatch:ListMetrics
tag:getResources
sts:GetCallerIdentity
iam:ListAccountAliases

Dashboard

edit

The aws lambda metricset comes with a predefined dashboard. For example:

Configuration example

edit

- module: aws
  period: 300s
  metricsets:
    - lambda
  # This module uses the aws cloudwatch metricset, all
  # the options for this metricset are also available here.

Metrics

edit

Please see more details for each metric in lambda-cloudwatch-metric.

Metric Name	Statistic Method
Invocations	Average
Errors	Average
DeadLetterErrors	Average
DestinationDeliveryFailures	Average
Duration	Average
Throttles	Average
IteratorAge	Average
ConcurrentExecutions	Average
UnreservedConcurrentExecutions	Average
ProvisionedConcurrentExecutions	Maximum
