Learn how to create, customize, and share CloudWatch dashboards to visualize metrics from across your AWS infrastructure in one place.
What Is a Dashboard?
A CloudWatch dashboard is a customizable home page that gathers graphs and widgets from many services into a single view.
Instead of hunting through console pages, your whole system health is on one screen.
Widgets Overview
Dashboards are built from widgets:
- Line and stacked area for time series
