Amazon CloudWatch Scalability

The solution is definitely scalable. Most of our development environment uses it and we are running three teams of 150-200 people. Usage levels are different between developers and the support team so the total users at one time is 100-150.
The solution is managed by our internal AWS maintenance team. Seven people manage our cloud environment and seven manage our platform side for not just CloudWatch, but everything on AWS.
We still need to find a solution for Snowflake and Tableau environments unless CloudWatch provides better support in the future.
In my company, we have around 20 AWS accounts, and on each AWS account, we use Amazon CloudWatch. The major purpose of the solution is to collect logs.
Amazon CloudWatch is a scalable tool because it has no limitations in the number of systems and alarms you can create.

I rate Amazon CloudWatch an eight out of ten for scalability.
View full review »With Amazon CloudWatch, you don't need to worry about scalability in terms of volume or in terms of horizontal or vertical growth. In general, Amazon CloudWatch is a highly scalable product.
My company's clients who use Amazon CloudWatch and I deal with are mostly small and medium-sized companies.
It is highly scalable and capable of handling a vast amount of logs. In our particular scenario, we haven't encountered a use case where we need to retain logs for the past fifteen years. I would rate it eight out of ten.

We haven't heard so much about any scalability issues. It scales well. It's about the volume and we pump so many logs, particularly in the space of the Datadog, it becomes expensive. We've put restrictions around it based on price and not based on that it can't be done. We just stick to the logs, indexed in size, so people complain that it costs so much.
When it comes to writing the PI data into the logs, we always ask: should we do it, not do it? It's all to do with your teams. Overall, for us, it has become a widely accepted solution to be used in the public cloud.
We have about five dozen technologists that use the solution currently. We might have between 100 and 500 end-users in different business groups.

View full review »The tool’s scalability is good. I rate the scalability a seven and a half out of ten. I have configured two instances for CPU usage. It breaks the threshold. It scales up and down multiple times. It is better to build only one instance in such facilities. We have 30 users in our organization.

View full review »We are already on the cloud platform, and we have never experienced any hurdles in terms of performance or scalability. It is always the same as it was at the beginning and we do not feel many differences as we have been growing because that is something that is already scaling at the back end and I think the team is doing it. We are not aware of how they do it, but as end users, we do not feel such difficulties in accessing it.
The scalability of Amazon CloudWatch is good. We do not have to do anything to scale the solution it is done by the vendor.
We have more than 10,000 people using the solution.
I rate the scalability of Amazon CloudWatch a nine out of ten.

I’m not aware of the level of scalability on offer.
View full review »Amazon CloudWatch is a scalable solution, and what I mean by this is that it will hold the logs until the next deployment. If you do the deployment, then all the logs will go, but right now, my company doesn't have any requirement that says the logs should be stored for one year. Amazon CloudWatch may be scalable in the future, but my company has never tried scaling it, and there was never any instance when the solution ran out of memory.
We have five or six customers using the solution.
I rate the scalability of Amazon CloudWatch a seven out of ten.

I would rate the solution's scalability a nine out of ten. My company has 10-15 users for the product.
View full review »The solution scales quite well.
It's the infrastructure team that is using the solution at our organization. It's a team of about seven or eight people and they are using it to monitor the performance of the cloud instances to address any degradation.
The solution is currently being used in 100% of the Amazon instances that we are leveraging. Unless we increase the number of instances on Amazon, we are not planning to scale this product beyond what we are using. We are already using it to the maximum.

Scalability is really good because it's baked into the platform, so that gives it a lot more capacity for scaling very quickly.
