Viewing log files with CloudWatch tools

In addition to visualizing your performance and availability for your application with the Amazon CloudWatch Internet Monitor dashboard, there are several CloudWatch tools that you can use to dive deeper into the CloudWatch log files that Internet Monitor generates for you. The log files aggregate CloudWatch metrics about traffic to your application and to each Amazon Web Services Region, and include data such as total traffic impact, availability, and round-trip time. The tools that you can use include CloudWatch Logs Insights, CloudWatch Metrics, and CloudWatch Contributor Insights.

This section highlights some examples of using those tools to look at the data generated and published in the CloudWatch log files for Internet Monitor.
