How to export CloudWatch Dashboard data to share with people with no AWS account.


I set up monitoring and alarms about active connections to the loadbalancer, CPU and Memory usage from all of my instances with CloudWatch. And my client (the owner of the product in the website) wants me to share all these numbers and possibly graphs of those so he can see how the system is behaving, etc. He doesn't have an AWS account.

Is there any feature in CloudWatch that can give me these results, graphs or numbers?


Solution

  • From Reduce Time to Resolution with Amazon CloudWatch Snapshot Graphs and Alerts | AWS DevOps Blog:

    You can use snapshot graphs to integrate and display CloudWatch charts outside of the AWS Management Console to improve monitoring visibility or reduce time to resolution. This feature makes it possible for you to display CloudWatch charts on your webpage or integrate charts with third-party tools, such as ticketing, chat applications, and bug tracking.
