Amazon Web Services (AWS) is announcing new CloudWatch Alarms capabilities in the AWS Console Mobile Application. You can now investigate alarms and move from notification to root cause faster with interactive graphs, AI-generated logs summaries, natural language logs search, and streamlined access to related metrics and resources.

When a CloudWatch Alarm triggers, engineers often need to quickly understand what went wrong. Previously, investigating an alarm on the mobile app required switching between multiple screens and services to view metrics, access logs, and identify the root cause. This update brings these capabilities together in a single view, reducing the time from notification to resolution.

CloudWatch Alarms now include interactive graphs that let you visualize the metric that triggered the alarm, zoom in on specific time windows, and explore the data to quickly identify anomalies. You can access related logs and review an AI-generated summary that highlights key contributing factors. To refine log search results, you can type queries, use voice input, or select pre-saved Logs Insights queries using natural language. A time selector lets you view custom time ranges and adjust time zones to match your operational needs. Related metrics and resources are conveniently displayed alongside the alarm, facilitating a more thorough investigation.

To get started, download the AWS Console Mobile App from the Apple App Store or Google Play Store, then navigate to CloudWatch in the app to investigate Alarms. The AWS Console Mobile App is available in all AWS Commercial Regions at no additional cost. For more information, visit the AWS Console Mobile Application product page.
