Amazon EventBridge announces new console dashboard

Posted on: Jun 28, 2024

Amazon EventBridge announces a new console dashboard providing you with a centralized view of your EventBridge resources, metrics, and quotas. The dashboard leverages CloudWatch metrics, allowing you to monitor account level metrics such as PutEvents, Matched Events, and Invocations for Buses, Concurrency and Throttles for Pipes, and Invocations and Errors for ScheduledGroups. Additionally, the dashboard allows you to view your default and applied quotas and navigate to the Service Quotas page to request increases, enabling you to respond quickly to changes in usage.

The Amazon EventBridge Event Bus is a serverless event router that enables you to create scalable event-driven applications by routing events between your own applications, SaaS applications, and AWS services. EventBridge Pipes provides a consistent, and cost-effective way to create point-to-point integrations between event producers and consumers. The EventBridge Scheduler makes it simple for developers to create, execute, and manage scheduled tasks at scale.

The new console dashboard surfaces account level metrics, providing deeper insight into your event-driven applications and allowing you to quickly identify and resolve issues as they arise. You can use the dashboard to answer basic questions such as “How many Buses and Pipes have I configured in my account?”, “What was my PutEvent traffic pattern for the last 3 hours?” or “What is the concurrency of my Pipe?”. You can further analyze and customize these dashboards in CloudWatch.

The dashboard is available by default in the EventBridge console in all AWS Regions, where EventBridge is available. To learn more, visit our documentation.
