New Relic integrates with Amazon Web Services (AWS) to monitor CloudWatch Application Signals metrics and other data to New Relic.
This document explains how to activate the integration, and describes the data reported.
Activate the integration
This integration is available through CloudWatch MetricStreams.
To enable this integration, see how to connect AWS services to New Relic via CloudWatch Metric Streams.

Available metric data
This New Relic infrastructure integration collects the following Amazon CloudWatch Application Signals data:
Metric | Unit | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Ms | The delay before data transfer begins after the request is made. |
| Count | A count of both HTTP 5XX server-side faults and OpenTelemetry span status errors. |
| Count | A count of HTTP 4XX client-side errors. These are considered to be request errors that are not caused by service problems. Therefore, the Availability metric displayed on Application Signals dashboards does not regard these errors as service faults. |
Create alerts
You can set up to notify you if there are any changes. For example, you can set up an alert to notify relevant parties of critical or fatal errors.
