Amazon S3 Replication now provides detailed metrics and notifications to monitor the status of object replication between buckets. You can monitor replication progress by tracking bytes pending, operations pending, and replication latency between your source and destination buckets using the S3 management console or Amazon CloudWatch. You can also set up S3 Event Notifications to receive replication failure notifications to quickly diagnose and correct configuration issues. S3 Replication metrics and notifications help you closely monitor replication progress. Previously, S3 Replication metrics and notifications were available with S3 Replication Time Control (S3 RTC). Beginning now, they can be enabled for all replication rules.
With S3 Replication metrics and notifications, you can track per rule level metrics when replicating to the same AWS Region or across different AWS Regions. You can use Amazon SNS, Amazon SQS or AWS Lamdba to set up S3 failure event notifications and identify misconfigurations or permission issues in replication rules as soon as they occur. When creating a replication rule, you will have an option to enable S3 Replication metrics and notifications for each replication rule. You can use the S3 Management Console, SDK, API, or AWS CloudFormation to enable S3 Replication metrics and notifications.
S3 Replication metrics and notifications are available in all AWS Regions, including the AWS GovCloud (US) Regions, the AWS China (Beijing) Region, operated by Sinnet, and the AWS China (Ningxia) Region, operated by NWCD. For pricing information, please visit the Amazon Cloudwatch pricing page.
