Integrate monitoring category with CloudWatch RUM #9239

Open watilde opened 2 years ago

watilde commented 2 years ago

Is this feature request related to a new or existing Amplify category?

New category

Is this related to another service?

CloudWatch

Describe the feature you'd like to request

As a developer, I want to track Core Web Vitals of my Amplify application via CloudWatch RUM so that I can give customers the best experience.

Refs: https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/aws/cloudwatch-rum/

Describe the solution you'd like

Integration as a category would be the great experience. This proposal needs a collaboration with library team.

  1. Run amplify add monitoring to start configuration
  2. Choose what App monitor name should take a pace in CloudWatch RUM?
  3. import { CloudWatchRUM } from 'aws-amplify'; and initialize in app
  4. Then you will be able to see Core Web Vitals in dashboard on CloudWatch RUM
    • Stretch goal would be to integrate this feature on Console

Describe alternatives you've considered

I've implemented via Kinesis and QuickSight which took more than 6 steps and was hard to maintain. https://watilde.medium.com/improve-ux-by-observability-in-front-end-with-amplify-and-quicksight-e7083ec1913b

Additional context

Many users today are struggling to observe issues of front-end in production and it is not simple to integrate tracking system as there was not many best practices, particularly within AWS. It is a blocker for large scale application developers to migrate from traditional server app to SPA.

Is this something that you'd be interested in working on?

In addition, I heard from developers that they are struggling to monitor heath check of resources Amplify uses such as DynamoDB. e.g. Developers need to check DynamoDB console if Throttling Error happens.

@akshbhu Is anyone working on this? Looking to contribute to Amplify-CLI, but don't want to reduplicate efforts.

Pls assign me the issue if possible
