Kentik's Cloud Performance Monitor is a great way to see at a glance the performance and accessibility of different services provided by AWS.

This month, we added support for Aurora and Lambda services. Customers may use the Cloud Performance Monitor to see the amount of traffic forwarded to and from these services. In addition to the traffic volume, customers can also see AWS service performance information, such as HTTP latency and status codes, if they deploy synthetic agents with tests targeting those service endpoints. Set up synthetic tests that target Aurora and Lambda service endpoints to see performance information similar to what is shown below:

Note: The Cloud Performance Monitor page is dynamic and shows only services actively communicating with your cloud deployment. If your account doesn’t show these new services or the services pictured in the screenshot above, that’s likely due to a lack of traffic towards those services in your environment.
