AWS RoboMaker now supports account-level metrics for simulation resources

Posted on: May 5, 2020

AWS RoboMaker, a service that makes it easy to simulate and deploy robotics applications at cloud scale, now supports account-level metrics for simulation resources through Amazon CloudWatch. This feature helps customers more easily manage their resource limits to ensure that their simulation workloads continue to run successfully.  

The RoboMaker simulation resources covered by the new metrics include simulation applications, robot applications, active simulation jobs, and active simulation job batches. With these new metrics, you can now set alarms on your simulation resource limits through Amazon CloudWatch. You will be notified when your resource usage is about to breach your account limits so that you can file a limit increase request with AWS Support. For details about account-level metrics for simulation resources, please see the RoboMaker documentation.  

AWS RoboMaker is available in the following AWS Regions: US East (N. Virginia), US East (Ohio), US West (Oregon), EU (Ireland), EU (Frankfurt), Asia Pacific (Tokyo), and Asia Pacific (Singapore). To get started, please visit the RoboMaker webpage or run a sample simulation job in the RoboMaker console.
