Hello. Mackerel team CRE Inoue (
id:a-know) here with another update announcement.
AWS WAF (v1 / v2) now supported with AWS Integration
Various WAF metrics can now be monitored with AWS integration!
Billable targets are determined using a conversion of 1 Web Access Control List = 1 Micro Host. Available metrics are listed in the help page linked below.
Now, it’s possible to monitor requests processed by Web Application Firewall and more. We hope this will help with monitoring services and various metrics of web applications under the protection of WAF!
Specifications changed so that values larger than 100% are no longer registrable for thresholds of metric rate monitors
This was previously announced in an earlier post on this blog. For more details, check out the notice linked below.
Content added to alert notifications of Amazon EventBridge and Webhook
In Mackerel, you can send alert notifications not only by email or Slack, but with other services like Amazon EventBridge and Webhook as well. With this update, the following items are now included in notifications sent with Amazon EventBridge or Webhook.
- (EventBridge notifications only）Instance ID
- If the target host is Amazon EC2
- Alert ID
Amazon EventBridge and Webhook are both extremely useful features regarding all sorts of automation. Of course, it’s best to look into the cause of a problem when they occur, but if that’s not possible, automating the response can be really helpful. We highly recommended that you take a moment and consider whether or not you could benefit from a little automation.
