CloudWatch has changed—and most people haven’t noticed.
In this talk, I’ll dig into why the usual complaints about CloudWatch being clunky, overpriced, or too limited just don’t hold up anymore. I’ll walk through real-world ways to use its newer features to build solid observability setups—without jumping straight to expensive third-party tools.
I’ll also cover how to keep costs low without losing the metrics, logs, and traces you actually need.
