    • setEndpoint

      public void setEndpoint(String endpoint)
      Description copied from interface: AmazonCloudWatch
      Overrides the default endpoint for this client ("https://monitoring.us-east-1.amazonaws.com"). Callers can use this method to control which AWS region they want to work with.

      Callers can pass in just the endpoint (ex: "monitoring.us-east-1.amazonaws.com") or a full URL, including the protocol (ex: "https://monitoring.us-east-1.amazonaws.com"). If the protocol is not specified here, the default protocol from this client's ClientConfiguration will be used, which by default is HTTPS.

      For more information on using AWS regions with the AWS SDK for Java, and a complete list of all available endpoints for all AWS services, see: http://developer.amazonwebservices.com/connect/entry.jspa?externalID= 3912

      This method is not threadsafe. An endpoint should be configured when the client is created and before any service requests are made. Changing it afterwards creates inevitable race conditions for any service requests in transit or retrying.

      Specified by:
      setEndpoint in interface AmazonCloudWatch
      Parameters:
      endpoint - The endpoint (ex: "monitoring.us-east-1.amazonaws.com") or a full URL, including the protocol (ex: "https://monitoring.us-east-1.amazonaws.com") of the region specific AWS endpoint this client will communicate with.
    • setRegion

      public void setRegion(Region region)
      Description copied from interface: AmazonCloudWatch
      An alternative to AmazonCloudWatch.setEndpoint(String), sets the regional endpoint for this client's service calls. Callers can use this method to control which AWS region they want to work with.

      By default, all service endpoints in all regions use the https protocol. To use http instead, specify it in the ClientConfiguration supplied at construction.

      This method is not threadsafe. A region should be configured when the client is created and before any service requests are made. Changing it afterwards creates inevitable race conditions for any service requests in transit or retrying.

      Specified by:
      setRegion in interface AmazonCloudWatch
      Parameters:
      region - The region this client will communicate with. See Region.getRegion(com.amazonaws.regions.Regions) for accessing a given region. Must not be null and must be a region where the service is available.

    • getMetricStatistics

      public GetMetricStatisticsResult getMetricStatistics(GetMetricStatisticsRequest request)
      Description copied from interface: AmazonCloudWatch

      Gets statistics for the specified metric.

      The maximum number of data points that can be queried is 50,850, whereas the maximum number of data points returned from a single GetMetricStatistics request is 1,440. If you make a request that generates more than 1,440 data points, Amazon CloudWatch returns an error. In such a case, you can alter the request by narrowing the specified time range or increasing the specified period. Alternatively, you can make multiple requests across adjacent time ranges. GetMetricStatistics does not return the data in chronological order.

      Amazon CloudWatch aggregates data points based on the length of the period that you specify. For example, if you request statistics with a one-minute granularity, Amazon CloudWatch aggregates data points with time stamps that fall within the same one-minute period. In such a case, the data points queried can greatly outnumber the data points returned.

      The following examples show various statistics allowed by the data point query maximum of 50,850 when you call GetMetricStatistics on Amazon EC2 instances with detailed (one-minute) monitoring enabled:

      • Statistics for up to 400 instances for a span of one hour
      • Statistics for up to 35 instances over a span of 24 hours
      • Statistics for up to 2 instances over a span of 2 weeks

      For information about the namespace, metric names, and dimensions that other Amazon Web Services products use to send metrics to CloudWatch, go to Amazon CloudWatch Metrics, Namespaces, and Dimensions Reference in the Amazon CloudWatch Developer Guide.

      Specified by:
      getMetricStatistics in interface AmazonCloudWatch
      Returns:
      Result of the GetMetricStatistics operation returned by the service.
    • listMetrics

      public ListMetricsResult listMetrics(ListMetricsRequest request)
      Description copied from interface: AmazonCloudWatch

      Returns a list of valid metrics stored for the AWS account owner. Returned metrics can be used with GetMetricStatistics to obtain statistical data for a given metric.

      Up to 500 results are returned for any one call. To retrieve further results, use returned NextToken values with subsequent ListMetrics operations. If you create a metric with the PutMetricData action, allow up to fifteen minutes for the metric to appear in calls to the ListMetrics action. Statistics about the metric, however, are available sooner using GetMetricStatistics.
      Specified by:
      listMetrics in interface AmazonCloudWatch
      Returns:
      Result of the ListMetrics operation returned by the service.
    • listMetrics

      public ListMetricsResult listMetrics()
      Description copied from interface: AmazonCloudWatch
      Simplified method form for invoking the ListMetrics operation.

    • putMetricAlarm

      public PutMetricAlarmResult putMetricAlarm(PutMetricAlarmRequest request)
      Description copied from interface: AmazonCloudWatch

      Creates or updates an alarm and associates it with the specified Amazon CloudWatch metric. Optionally, this operation can associate one or more Amazon Simple Notification Service resources with the alarm.

      When this operation creates an alarm, the alarm state is immediately set to INSUFFICIENT_DATA. The alarm is evaluated and its StateValue is set appropriately. Any actions associated with the StateValue is then executed.

      When updating an existing alarm, its StateValue is left unchanged. If you are using an AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) account to create or modify an alarm, you must have the following Amazon EC2 permissions:
      • ec2:DescribeInstanceStatus and ec2:DescribeInstances for all alarms on Amazon EC2 instance status metrics.
      • ec2:StopInstances for alarms with stop actions.
      • ec2:TerminateInstances for alarms with terminate actions.
      • ec2:DescribeInstanceRecoveryAttribute, and ec2:RecoverInstances for alarms with recover actions.

      If you have read/write permissions for Amazon CloudWatch but not for Amazon EC2, you can still create an alarm but the stop or terminate actions won't be performed on the Amazon EC2 instance. However, if you are later granted permission to use the associated Amazon EC2 APIs, the alarm actions you created earlier will be performed. For more information about IAM permissions, see Permissions and Policies in Using IAM.

      If you are using an IAM role (e.g., an Amazon EC2 instance profile), you cannot stop or terminate the instance using alarm actions. However, you can still see the alarm state and perform any other actions such as Amazon SNS notifications or Auto Scaling policies.

      If you are using temporary security credentials granted using the AWS Security Token Service (AWS STS), you cannot stop or terminate an Amazon EC2 instance using alarm actions.

      Specified by:
      putMetricAlarm in interface AmazonCloudWatch
      Returns:
      Result of the PutMetricAlarm operation returned by the service.
    • putMetricData

      public PutMetricDataResult putMetricData(PutMetricDataRequest request)
      Description copied from interface: AmazonCloudWatch

      Publishes metric data points to Amazon CloudWatch. Amazon CloudWatch associates the data points with the specified metric. If the specified metric does not exist, Amazon CloudWatch creates the metric. When Amazon CloudWatch creates a metric, it can take up to fifteen minutes for the metric to appear in calls to the ListMetrics action.

      Each PutMetricData request is limited to 8 KB in size for HTTP GET requests and is limited to 40 KB in size for HTTP POST requests.

      Although the Value parameter accepts numbers of type Double, Amazon CloudWatch rejects values that are either too small or too large. Values must be in the range of 8.515920e-109 to 1.174271e+108 (Base 10) or 2e-360 to 2e360 (Base 2). In addition, special values (e.g., NaN, +Infinity, -Infinity) are not supported.

      Data that is timestamped 24 hours or more in the past may take in excess of 48 hours to become available from submission time using GetMetricStatistics.

      Specified by:
      putMetricData in interface AmazonCloudWatch
      Returns:
      Result of the PutMetricData operation returned by the service.
    • setAlarmState

      public SetAlarmStateResult setAlarmState(SetAlarmStateRequest request)
      Description copied from interface: AmazonCloudWatch

      Temporarily sets the state of an alarm. When the updated StateValue differs from the previous value, the action configured for the appropriate state is invoked. For example, if your alarm is configured to send an Amazon SNS message when an alarm is triggered, temporarily changing the alarm's state to ALARM will send an Amazon SNS message. This is not a permanent change. The next periodic alarm check (in about a minute) will set the alarm to its actual state. Because the alarm state change happens very quickly, it is typically only visibile in the alarm's History tab in the Amazon CloudWatch console or through DescribeAlarmHistory.

      Specified by:
      setAlarmState in interface AmazonCloudWatch
      Returns:
      Result of the SetAlarmState operation returned by the service.
    • shutdown

      public void shutdown()
      Description copied from interface: AmazonCloudWatch
      Shuts down this client object, releasing any resources that might be held open. This is an optional method, and callers are not expected to call it, but can if they want to explicitly release any open resources. Once a client has been shutdown, it should not be used to make any more requests.
      Specified by:
      shutdown in interface AmazonCloudWatch
    • getCachedResponseMetadata

      public ResponseMetadata getCachedResponseMetadata(AmazonWebServiceRequest request)
      Description copied from interface: AmazonCloudWatch
      Returns additional metadata for a previously executed successful request, typically used for debugging issues where a service isn't acting as expected. This data isn't considered part of the result data returned by an operation, so it's available through this separate, diagnostic interface.

      Response metadata is only cached for a limited period of time, so if you need to access this extra diagnostic information for an executed request, you should use this method to retrieve it as soon as possible after executing a request.

      Specified by:
      getCachedResponseMetadata in interface AmazonCloudWatch
      Parameters:
      request - The originally executed request.
      Returns:
      The response metadata for the specified request, or null if none is available.
