Script tools for metrics
- [Instructor] The next set of tools that Amazon provides for metrics and logging allow you to write scripts. This is the AWS CLI tool, and you use this to get metrics from a terminal window, or to create custom metrics. Now, there's another version of this, it's experimental at the time of this recording, but I do use it in production, so I'll just pointer to it as a tip. It's called the aws-shell, and the difference between the AWS CLI tool and the aws-shell is the shell has auto-complete. So particularly when you're looking at a new set of capabilities, it's useful because it auto-completes for you. So it does basically the same thing. You can use it to get metrics or to create custom metrics, and you can use it to auto-complete on the shell. In subsequent movies, we're going to grab the AWS CLI tool, set it up, and then we'll use it to first view metrics, and then to look at how to create a custom metric.
