- [Instructor] So let's talk about AWS CloudWatch,…Amazon web services CloudWatch…which is one of the tools we're going to see demoed…in a later video.…The fact of the matter…if you're leveraging Amazon web services,…then you should at least look at CloudWatch.…CloudWatch is systematic to AWS…and you can access it directly…from the particular subsystem such as S3 storage…and EC2 compute.…It's pretty complete with features you need…and is a good example of a cloud monitoring tool…so often when I provide a demo such as doing this video…I leverage Amazon web services CloudWatch…because it kind of shows everything…that a cloud monitoring tool is capable of doing.…
