announcement

This AWS blog post details the application observability experience available within Amazon CloudWatch Omni, a collaborative and AI-powered platform for monitoring applications and AI agents. It streamlines incident investigations by organizing observability data around applications, fostering cross-team collaboration, and dynamically adapting to system changes. CloudWatch Omni integrates with existing CloudWatch telemetry, supports enterprise SSO, and uses the Amazon DevOps Agent for AI-driven root cause analysis. It is accessible via a dedicated URL without requiring AWS Console access and is built on OpenTelemetry.

  • Unified Collaborative Workspace for Observability

    CloudWatch Omni provides a single URL with enterprise SSO via IAM Identity Center, allowing SREs, developers, and managers to share investigation context without needing AWS Console access. This ensures that when an issue escalates, subsequent engineers join the same session with full prior context already available.

  • Adaptive Application Observability and Dynamic Topology

    CloudWatch Omni automatically discovers services, maps dependencies, and adjusts alarms as applications evolve, replacing manual dashboard maintenance. It organizes telemetry by application, not infrastructure, and provides dynamic views of SLOs and health within team-specific 'Spaces'.

  • AI-Powered Incident Investigation via DevOps Agent

    The Amazon DevOps Agent assists teams in investigation sessions by correlating signals and suggesting next steps, grounded in the same telemetry engineers see. It identifies correlated events, traces root cause paths, and maintains investigation history for post-incident reviews, streamlining the resolution process.

  • Simple Setup and OpenTelemetry Integration

    Setting up CloudWatch Omni involves connecting an identity provider through IAM Identity Center and creating 'Spaces' for teams. It instantly makes existing CloudWatch telemetry available, automatically discovers services, and supports bringing in telemetry from other environments via OpenTelemetry Protocol (OTLP) endpoints.
