Developer teams and even operational teams often ignore monitoring applications. Deadlines, inexperience, company culture, and management can lead to poor or neglected monitoring inside developing platforms.

In our last post, we covered CloudWatch Metrics in a great deal of detail. We looked at how we can use it to monitor the health of our Lambda functions, including setting up service dashboards as well as alerts. In this post, we will focus on its sister service – CloudWatch Logs. We’ll see how it works and how to get the most out of it.
AWS bills are notoriously complicated, and the Amazon Cost Explorer doesn’t always make it easy to understand exactly where your money is going.

Transport Layer Security (TLS) is a cryptographic protocol commonly used to provide secure network communication between web servers and browsers.
