How monitor memory of your EC2 instances via AWS CloudWatch

In this video we show you how you use Cloudwatch Unified Agent to monitor your Windows instances performance metrics and logs

By default, we cannot monitor Memory metrics on EC2 Instances. But, by using a custom metric we can. In this video, I walk through the process of setting up custom metrics. This is one of the possible questions asked in the AWS assoiciate developer/architect/sysops exam as well.

Packages to run :
1) sudo yum install perl-Switch perl-DateTime perl-Sys-Syslog perl-LWP-Protocol-https perl-Digest-SHA --enablerepo="rhui-REGION-rhel-server-optional" -y

2) sudo yum install zip unzip
