Question

A DevOps team manages an API running on-premises that serves as a backend for an Amazon API Gateway endpoint. Customers have been complaining about high response latencies, which the development team has verified using the API Gateway latency metrics in Amazon CloudWatch. To identify the cause, the team needs to collect relevant data without introducing additional latency. Which actions should be taken to accomplish this? (Choose two.)

Accepted Answer

Correct answer: A, C. The correct answer is A, C. Option A: Install the CloudWatch agent server side and configure the agent to upload relevant logs to CloudWatch. Option C: Enable AWS X-Ray tracing in API Gateway, modify the application to capture request segments, and use the X-Ray daemon to upload segments to X-Ray. Amazon API Gateway is a fully managed front door for creating and securing APIs at scale. Amazon CloudWatch collects metrics, logs and alarms to monitor and react to operational health. AWS Config tracks resource configuration changes and evaluates compliance.
