Your CloudWatch Queries & Dashboards

👋 Welcome!

How are you using Lambdakiq's CloudWatch Embedded Metrics? Please share your Metric of Insights snippets.

I don't use it a lot. Only to know if a Lambda takes a long time to run.
Is there a way to disable de CloudWatch events? They make CloudWatch service cost a lot (~ $60) compare to Lambda service (~ $0,05) in production.

Yup: https://github.com/customink/lambdakiq#rails-configs you can set the metrics logger. For example:

config.lambdakiq.metrics_logger = Logger.new("/dev/null")

Hi @metaskills!

I'm so sorry to bring this topic back after so long. I tried to add the following:

In production.rb file

  logger = Logger.new("/dev/null")
  config.logger    = logger

  config.log_level = :info
  config.lograge.enabled = true
  config.lograge.formatter = Lograge::Formatters::Json.new
  config.lograge.custom_payload do |controller|
    { requestid: controller.request.request_id }
  end

  config.lambdakiq.metrics_logger = Logger.new("/dev/null")

In app.rb file:

Lambdakiq.config.metrics_logger = Logger.new("/dev/null")

CloudWatch metrics are still sent to AWS.

Do you know how to stop CloudWatch metrics?
