As the customer was ok with releasing it as open source <a href="https://github.com/Puppet-Finland/nagios-plugin-cloudwatch">here</a> it is. It is written in Ruby - we like the language and we&rsquo;re also Puppet guys, so it felt like a natural choice for us.</p> <p>The plugin allows getting as many metrics you want from Cloudwatch and setting alert thresholds (warning, critical) for each metric statistic (e.g. <em>&ldquo;average CPUUtilization percent&rdquo;</em>) separately. In many cases it is not useful to configure alerts for a metric (e.g. <em>&ldquo;minimum CPUUtilization percent&rdquo;</em>), but you do want to graph it regardless - this plugins allows that.</p>
