Introduction to Cloud Service Monitoring

Scenarios

Cloud Service Monitoring collects data of built-in metrics of cloud services. You can monitor these metrics to track the status of corresponding cloud services. On the Cloud Service Monitoring page, in addition to viewing monitoring data, you can also create alarm rules and export raw data.

What You Can Do with Cloud Service Monitoring

  • Viewing metrics: On the page displaying metrics, you can view graphs of raw data collected from lats 1 hour, 3 hours, 12 hours, and 24 hours. You can customize the metrics to be viewed and view monitoring data that is automatically refreshed.

  • Create alarm rules: You can create alarm rules for key metrics of cloud services. When the conditions in the alarm rule are met, Cloud Eye sends emails, or text messages, or sends HTTP/HTTPS messages, enabling you to quickly respond to resource changes.

  • Exporting monitoring data: Cloud Service Monitoring allows you to export a maximum of 10 monitoring items in your selected time range and rollup period. The exported monitoring report contains the username, region name, service name, instance name, instance ID, metric name, metric data, time, and timestamp, facilitating query and filtering.
