'Getting Down and Dirty with Metric-based Alerting for AWS Lambda' awslambda microservices
The phrase “better safe than sorry” gets thrown around whenever people talk about monitoring or getting observability into your AWS resources but the truth is that you can’t sit around and wait until a problem arises, you need tostay one step ahead of the competition
From there, we’ll take a peek at some of the namespace metrics inside the AWS Lambda, and we’ll explain how do they operate. For example:will calculate the number of times a function has been invoked in response to invocation API call or to an event which substitutes the RequestCount metric.

Inside the Notification box, choose the “select notification list” in a dropdown menu and choose your SNS endpoint. The last step in this setup is to click the “Create Alarm” button.Setting metric-based alerts with Dashbird is not as complicated, in fact, it’s quite the opposite. While in the app, go to the Alerts menu and click on the add button on the right side of your screen and give it a name.
