Hide your CloudWatch alarms that you use for Auto Scaling actions

Posted on: Nov 3, 2017

Amazon CloudWatch is excited to announce that you can now hide your Auto Scaling Alarms in the CloudWatch console. Auto Scaling Alarms are CloudWatch alarms that use actions to dynamically scale your Auto Scaling groups to handle the load for your application. To learn more about Dynamic Auto Scaling, please visit here. With a single click, you can now hide all your Auto Scaling alarms from being displayed in the CloudWatch console along with your other CloudWatch alarms. In addition, the Alarms counter on the sidebar that shows the number of alarms in each state will also reflect your selection. Please note the hidden alarms will continue to perform the Auto Scaling actions as before. 

This feature is available in all AWS Public Regions. To know more about CloudWatch Alarms, please visit here.
