When we provision app environment, we provision a Grafana dashboard specific to the app environment, accessible at monitor.<your-app-env-domain>. You can access metrics and logs of all nodes, pods and containers running within the app environment’s kubernetes cluster.

If you are running your app environment in AWS, you will also see a pre-configured CloudWatch data source in the corresponding Grafana dashboard. You can access logs and metrics that are stored in CloudWatch.

This is super useful if your application is using managed AWS services that are sending metrics/logs to CloudWatch.

Go to “Monitor” tab in your app environment to access the Grafana dashboard. Within Grafana, see Connections > Data sources to see the Cloudwatch data source. Click on “Explore” next to it to see CloudWatch logs and metrics.
