Can AWS cloud services default metrics be monitored without having cloud watch?

[Surisetti]

Hi,

Is it possible to monitor the default metrics of AWS resources such as (VPC, EC2, S3, Lambda, etc..) in Dynatrace without having these AWS resources configured with Cloud Watch?

Hello @Surisetti 

I don't think so, we talk about service cloud metrics provided by cloud provider.
So Cloudwatch is for me the only api available on AWS to get these metrics.

Regards.
