Certificate Manager metrics

AWS Certificate Manager handles the complexity of creating, storing, and renewing public and private SSL/TLS X.509 certificates and keys that protect your AWS websites and applications. Ensure your cloud platform is configured in SolarWinds Observability SaaS to collect this service's data. See Add an AWS cloud account. CloudWatch metrics must also be enabled for this service in the AWS Console for the metric data to be available.

Many of the collected metrics from Certificate Manager entities are displayed as widgets in SolarWinds Observability explorers; additional metrics may be collected and available in the Metrics Explorer. You can also create an alert for when an entity's metric value moves out of a specific range. See Entities in SolarWinds Observability SaaS for information about entity types in SolarWinds Observability SaaS.

The following table lists some of the metrics collected for these entities. To see the Certificate Manager metrics in the Metrics Explorer, type AWS.CertificateManager in the search box.

Metric Units Description
sw.metrics.healthscore Percent (%)

Health score. A health score provides real-time insight into the overall health and performance of your monitored entities. The health score is calculated based on anomalies detected for the entity, alerts triggered for the entity's metrics, and the status of the entity. The health score is displayed as a single numerical value that ranges from a Good (70-100) to Moderate (40-69) to Bad (0-39) distinction.

To view the health score for AWS Certificate Manager entities in the Metrics Explorer, filter the sw.metrics.healthscore metric by entity_types and select awscertificatemanager.

AWS.CertificateManager.DaysToExpiry Count The number of days until a certificate expires. ACM stops publishing the metrics after a certificate expires.
AWS.CertificateManager.CertificateArn   The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the certificate.
