Demo video: Integrate with AWS CloudWatch ►
In this video, we will go over how to integrate AWS Cloudwatch and send the data to Moogsoft.
The instruction documentation is conveniently located right here.
We are going to add our AWS credentials.
We need to create a policy and a role in AWS to complete the configuration. To do so, we need this JSON script from Moogsoft.
Grab this JSON script.
And now we are going to AWS.
Navigate to the policy section.
Paste the JSON script we grabbed from Moogsoft...
...and provide a meaningful name.
Now we got the policy. Let's create the role now.
"Another AWS Account" is what we need here.
We need to provide the Moogsoft AWS account number here.
Let's go back to Moogsoft. Copy this...
And paste it here.
Next, check "Require External ID". We need to grab it from Moogsoft. Here it is.
To this role we are creating, we need to associate the policy that we just created. Let me search by the name I gave that policy.
Lastly, provide a name for the role.
And now we have the role created.
Let's go back to Moogsoft and plug in the new role information. Here's the name of the role, and here's the AWS account number.
And the new credentials are now available for use.
Select a region, and test.
It works! Now, the data from Cloudwatch will start to flow into this instance of Moogsoft.
Thanks for watching!
