How CloudWatch investigations finds data for suggestions

CloudWatch investigations uses a wide range of data sources to determine dependency relationships and plan analysis paths, including telemetry data configurations, service configurations, and observed relationships. These dependency relationships are found more easily if you use CloudWatch Application Signals and Amazon X-Ray. When Application Signals and X-Ray aren't available, CloudWatch investigations will attempt to infer dependency relationships through co-occurring telemetry anomalies.

While CloudWatch investigations will continue to analyze telemetry data and provide suggestions without these features enabled, we strongly recommend that you enable the services and features listed in (Recommended) Best practices to enhance investigations for optimal quality and performance for CloudWatch investigations.
