Transit Gateway metrics
AWS Transit Gateways connect your Amazon Virtual Private Clouds (VPCs) and on-premises networks through a central hub, acting as highly scalable cloud routers — each new connection is made only once. This connection simplifies your network and puts an end to complex peering relationships.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 AWS Transit Gateway 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.
