Amazon Managed Service for Prometheus now provides Alert Manager & Ruler logs to help customers troubleshoot their alerting pipeline and configuration in Amazon CloudWatch Logs. Amazon Managed Service for Prometheus is a fully managed Prometheus-compatible monitoring service that makes it easy to monitor and alarm on operational metrics at scale. Prometheus is a popular Cloud Native Computing Foundation open source project for monitoring and alerting that is optimized for container environments. The Alert Manager allows customers to group, route, deduplicate, and silence alarms before routing them to end users via Amazon Simple Notification Service (Amazon SNS). The Ruler allows customers to define recording and alerting rules, which are queries that are evaluated at regular intervals. With Alert Manager and Ruler logs, customers can troubleshoot issues in their alerting pipelines including missing Amazon SNS topic permissions, misconfigured alert manager routes, and rules that fail to execute.

The check inspects your Microsoft Windows Server workloads and automatically lists your Microsoft Windows Server instances that are at EOS or nearing EOS. For example, Microsoft Windows Server 2012/2012 R2 Extended support will end on October 10, 2023 and instances that will reach EOS in less than 18 months will be flagged in the Trusted Advisor console to help customers investigate further.
