Monitoring uptime of services behind application load balancer

Eugenio — Mon, 12 Jun 2023 09:28:53 GMT

I'm looking for a way to monitor the uptime of different services that are behind an application load balancer in AWS. Some services are hosted in EC2, and others are in Fargate. Synthetic monitoring is not an option, and we would like to use AWS metrics sent to Dynatrace. Is that possible?

Thank you.

Yes. https://www.dynatrace.com/support/help/shortlink/app-and-network-load-balancer

While not uptime exactly, you can measure the active connections / flows and processed bytes alongside other metrics to create an SLO for availability.
