AWS Observability

Overview

Domain expertise for AWS observability across metrics, logs, and traces. Covers CloudWatch platform capabilities (alarms, dashboards, Log Insights, custom metrics, EMF), X-Ray trace analysis, CloudTrail operational auditing, and ADOT collector configuration.

Works best with the AWS MCP server — enables running CLI commands, querying CloudWatch, and validating configurations directly. All guidance also works with standard AWS CLI access.

Note: Reference files contain specific runtime versions, quota values, and feature matrices that may change. When precision matters (e.g., deploying to production, choosing a runtime, or checking a quota), confirm values against current AWS documentation rather than relying solely on the values in these files.
