AWS Lambda Console Now Enables You to Manage and Monitor Serverless Applications

Posted on: Oct 11, 2018

You can now view, manage, and monitor your serverless applications directly from the AWS Lambda console using the new Applications menu. This allows you to perform application level actions such as viewing all resources that together make up your application, and monitoring performance, errors, and traffic metrics for the application.

Serverless applications built using AWS Lambda are a combination of Lambda functions, event sources, and other resources that work together and are defined using the AWS Serverless Application Model (AWS SAM) or AWS CloudFormation. You can now view application templates and a list of all the resources in an application from the Overview tab. The Monitoring tab, available in beta, features Amazon CloudWatch metrics for the Lambda functions in an application. You can customize the default metrics dashboard in the Monitoring tab to display your preferred metrics by defining CloudWatch dashboards in your application template.

The Applications menu in the Lambda console is available in all regions where AWS Lambda is available. For more information on where Lambda is available, see the AWS region table.
