Cut your CloudWatch custom-metric bill: govern metric cardinality at ingest, then auto-baseline and roll up savings across your whole AWS Organization.
Overview
S4 Metrics governs CloudWatch custom-metric cardinality at the ingest edge - drop high-cardinality dimensions, bucket numeric ones, and aggregate windows BEFORE PutMetricData, so you pay for the series you need instead of an unbounded explosion. The open-source metricsd collector (StatsD/DogStatsD + OTLP/EMF/PutMetricData intake) does the governing and emits to CloudWatch plus an optional full-resolution S3/Prometheus tee. The commercial layer adds auto-baseline (rank your costliest dimensions and propose a rule set priced against live ListMetrics), an AWS Organizations consolidated rollup that READS each member account cardinality through a read-only cross-account role, and a savings dashboard. Read-only by design across accounts: the org role grants ONLY cloudwatch:ListMetrics - never metric values, never writes.
Highlights
- Cardinality governance at ingest: drop/bucket/aggregate before PutMetricData
- Auto-baseline ranks your costliest dimensions and proposes a priced rule set
- AWS Organizations consolidated rollup via a READ-ONLY (ListMetrics-only) cross-account role

Dimensions summary
You pay an hourly software fee tied to the EC2 instance type you run. The 15 dimensions map to specific instance sizes across the t3, t3a, m5, c5, c6i, c7i, m6i, and m7i families. Each is billed per hour of use, so cost scales with how long each instance runs. You pick the instance that fits your metric series volume; larger or more capable instances carry a different hourly rate. An annual commitment option is also available. This meters per instance type, letting you match compute to workload rather than paying a fixed subscription.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
The fee covers the S4 Metrics governance layer running on one EC2 instance in your own VPC. It adds auto-baseline rule proposals and a consolidated organization rollup. You size the instance by your metric series count. The instance also carries its separate EC2 compute charge on your AWS invoice.
The software fee meters per instance-hour, so it accrues only while the instance runs. A stopped instance does not generate software charges. Underlying AWS storage tied to the instance may still incur separate AWS fees. The software licence meters running time only.
Two charges apply at once. The AWS Marketplace software fee is billed hourly per instance type. Your EC2 compute runs as a separate line on your regular AWS invoice. Both scale with the instance you choose and how long it runs. An annual commitment option is also available.

Amazon Machine Image (AMI)
An AMI is a virtual image that provides the information required to launch an instance. Amazon EC2 (Elastic Compute Cloud) instances are virtual servers on which you can run your applications and workloads, offering varying combinations of CPU, memory, storage, and networking resources. You can launch as many instances from as many different AMIs as you need.
Version release notes
Adds a CloudFormation Quick Launch delivery option. Software identical to version 0.1.0.

Usage instructions
Launch via deploy/cloudformation/s4metrics-quickstart.yaml (creates the least-privilege instance role + security group and runs the collector + the dashboard). Dashboard on port 8088 with the S4METRICS_WEB_TOKEN bearer token. For AWS Organizations cardinality rollup, deploy s4metrics-org-stackset.yaml across member accounts to create the read-only S4MetricsBaselineRole.
