Streamline ingestion to reduce overhead while expanding AWS visibility

High-volume AWS workloads generate thousands of metrics per minute. Polling them through the CloudWatch API creates duplication, higher bills, and operational complexity. CloudWatch Metric Streams and Amazon Data Firehose solve this with push-based, batched delivery straight to Instana. Its a standardized, scalable ingestion pipeline that keeps your metrics complete, compressed, and continuously updated—no manual tuning or per-namespace setup.
