Features
- Synchronization of metrics between the edge with AWS Cloudwatch on the cloud.
- Works offline, and syncs the metrics to Cloudwatch when Internet connectivity is available.
- Natively accepts the same payload data as AWS Cloudwatch at the edge.
Description
The local Cloudwatch agent for AWS Greengrass is built to receive metrics from third party applications over Expressify in the Cloudwatch native format. Upon reception of these metrics, they will be synced with AWS Cloudwatch on the cloud.
If no Internet connectivity is available, green-watch
will buffer the data in memory until the Internet connectvity is available again.
