Setting up monitoring on AWS is hard. AWS provides countless features and sources of events. Overlooking the important settings is easy. The Monitoring Assistant helps you to monitor all the relevant sources of your AWS infrastructure via CloudWatch Alarms, EventBridge Rules, or more service-specific features such as RDS Event Notifications.

Launch Monitoring Assistant by sending a message in a channel and mention @marbot:

@marbot setup

This is how the monitoring assistant looks in Slack.
