Monitoring in AWS

Monitoring is critical to running production class systems. In AWS, CloudWatch is a service that provides an array of monitoring services.

In this exercise, you will create a Lambda function and monitor its execution using AWS CloudWatch. Create a Lambda function using the Lambda "Author from scratch" template, configure a test event for the Lambda and run the Lambda several times. Then in CloudWatch, find the metrics for your Lambda function.
