Cherry-pick of PR #14971 to 7.x branch. Original message:
I tried to run cloudwatch metricset with
namespace: "*"
and ListMetrics API did what we expected: it returned all metrics exists in that AWS account and was able to use to obtain statistical data.Here is what cloudwatch metricset collected:
The problem is:
statistic
andperiod
are defined for all metrics. For example, AWS/Usage metrics should be collected every 1 minute instead of every 5 minutes(data loss in this case). Also some metrics like AWS/Billing, should be collected every 6 hours or 12 hours instead of every 5 minutes(introduced extra cost in this case).The limitations are documented in doc under cloudwatch metricset.
closes #14965
