## 摘要

> ## Monitoring AWS Using Hyperscale Observability with Grafana

This session is a continuation of a previous session about Grafana. It focuses on recent capabilities and features now available. Vinay covers the session, in place of Sashi, who is on leave.

The session recaps previous discussions, including the effective use of Grafana with different data sources, creating queries, and customizing visualizations. Grafana's ability to provision infrastructure and applications using Terraform modules (dashboard as code) is highlighted, along with its use for SNMP-based network infrastructure monitoring. The move from the open-source version of Grafana to the enterprise license version is emphasized to leverage the full potential of Grafana.

Key highlights explored through demonstrations include data source integration, event tracking, alert integrations, instance monitoring, and resource tracking. Optic DR, an internal monitoring solution and plugin of VaticaDB, is crucial for pulling data into Grafana dashboards. *Opsbridge monitoring solutions use a dashboard to display even triggered by the monitoring systems.* Grafana's alert system is flexible and can be configured to use different notification channels, with the ability to forward alerts to Opsbridge to create incidents. Instance monitoring helps identify resource utilization, and resource tagging categorizes resources for effective management.

The session covers the use of a Terraform module for product teams, which creates Grafana organizations, users, folders, IAM roles, and dashboards for AWS services. *The product team can consume the modules by using sample telegram HCL file.* Default dashboards are provided for accounts onboarded to code, with prerequisites outlined in a readme file. Several default dashboards are offered to product teams, such as billing information dashboards that display resource utilization and EC2 dashboards that can be customized. Customized dashboards can consolidate all services into a single view, though this is typically limited to one account and one region.

EC2 inventory dashboards, using data from Optic DR, provide a view of running and non-running EC2 instances and identify whether resources are tagged. Event dashboards display daily active events triggered by OpsBridge AWS monitoring solutions, with ongoing integration of alerts generated by Grafana. Future roadmap items include SSO authentication, reporting capabilities, URL monitoring, process monitoring, log monitoring, and integration with other products like PagerDuty and Slack Manager.

The session concludes with a discussion of next steps and collaboration, encouraging users to leverage available dashboards and provide feedback or enhancement requests. The team also addresses questions about the cost impact of joining the service, clarifying that default metrics do not incur additional costs, but custom metrics may.
