Enum AwsSdkMetrics

java.lang.Object
  java.lang.Enum<AwsSdkMetrics>
      com.amazonaws.metrics.AwsSdkMetrics

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable, Comparable<AwsSdkMetrics>

public enum AwsSdkMetrics
extends Enum<AwsSdkMetrics>

Used to control the default AWS SDK metric collection system.

The default metric collection of the Java AWS SDK is disabled by default. To enable it, simply specify the system property "com.amazonaws.sdk.enableDefaultMetrics" when starting up the JVM. When the system property is specified, a default metric collector will be started at the AWS SDK level. The default implementation uploads the request/response metrics captured to Amazon CloudWatch using AWS credentials obtained via the DefaultAWSCredentialsProviderChain.

For additional optional attributes that can be specified for the system property, please read the javadoc of the individual fields of this class for more details.

Instead of via system properties, the default AWS SDK metric collection can also be enabled programmatically via enableDefaultMetrics(). Similarly, metric collection at the AWS SDK level can be disabled via disableMetrics().

Clients who needs to fully customize the metric collection can implement the SPI MetricCollector, and then replace the default AWS SDK implementation of the collector via setMetricCollector(MetricCollector).

Alternatively, for limited customization of the internal collector implementation provided by the AWS SDK, one can extend the internal Amazon CloudWatch metric collector. See the javadoc at com.amazonaws.metrics.internal.cloudwatch.CloudWatchMetricConfig for more details.
