ELB Monitoring Metrics

Overview

This section describes the namespace, the metrics that can be monitored by Cloud Eye, and dimensions of these metrics. You can view the metrics reported by ELB and the generated alarms on the Cloud Eye console.

Load Balancer Metrics

For dedicated load balancers, you can view the monitoring metrics by load balancer, listener, backend server group, or AZ. You can view only the Layer 7 metrics of a backend server group.

Metrics related to Layer 7 services support only HTTP, HTTPS, QUIC, and gRPC.
