Integration of Amazon CloudWatch and ShipStation

  • Amazon CloudWatch is a monitoring service that provides the information about the state of the cloud resources like storage, databases, CPU, and memory.
  • Amazon CloudWatch is a web service with a monitoring dashboard, which allows the users to monitor the states of their AWS resources.
  • It is provided by Amazon Web Services (AWS. as a part of its cloud computing platform.
  • It is integrated with other services like AWS Lambda, Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2), and Amazon Simple Storage Service (S3.
  • It enables the application owners to collect and analyze data in order to identify and troubleshoot problems or just determining the best possible configurations for their applications.
  • It is an integral part of AWS, which helps to keep tabs on resources running on AWS in order to ensure smooth running of applications.
  • It helps in measuring metrics, collecting logs, etc.
  • It can be used to send alerts when the thresholds are crossed.
  • It can also be used to automate scaling process based on certain conditions like utilization of resources, number of requests per second, etc.
  • It is used for operational analytics purposes.
  • There are various components in Amazon CloudWatch:
  • Monitors – These components are responsible for collecting metrics from other services like EC2, Lambda, and API Gateway and so on.
  • Alarms – These alarms are used to trigger an action in response to the crossing of certain thresholds set times on certain conditions and so on.
  • Scopes – Scopes are used to group together the resources belonging to a single application or a project or a customer account or a region or any other category that needs aggregation into a single view.
  • Dashboards – Dashboards are used to display data from multiple monitors in order to provide a consolidated view.
  • One can create custom dashboards by using different charts and graphs and tables in order to provide a complete overview of the application's performance and health.
  • Also, one can create alerts based on metrics collected by Amazon CloudWatch in order to receive notifications whenever there is an abnormal activity within the application or within the environment running it.
  • CloudWatch integrates with other AWS services like SNS, SQS, Lambda, Auto Scaling groups, and so on in order to facilitate automation of these application hosting and management tasks and activities and so on.
  • Amazon CloudWatch helps the user to get the information about the utilization of the individual resources like CPU, disk space, bandwidth etc., by components like EC2 instances, RDS database instances, EBS volumes etc., across multiple AWS regions as well as multiple accounts using AWS Organizations feature.
  • This integration helps the user to determine whether they are overusing any particular resource or are under-utilizing some specific resource that could be utilized more effectively with improved resource configuration. In this way, it helps in saving money while getting better use out of resources at the same time.
  • Integration of Amazon Cloud Watch with ShipStation helps in monitoring orders, shipments, products, inventory levels etc., more precisely and efficiently as compared to monitoring each of these things separately from different sources independently of each other without any integration between them.
  • Integration of ShipStation with Amazon Cloud Watch enables its users to monitor the following aspects:
  • Orders placed. Orders placed on ShipStation can be tracked using Amazon CloudWatch in order to keep track of how many orders have been received, when they were received, how much time did it take for them to be received after being placed etc., i.e., how efficient ShipStation is at receiving orders from its customers and processing them through its system towards their final destination i.e., fulfillment centers or customers' premises' locations or wherever else it may be required to be sent depending on the shipping method selected by the customer during checkout process while placing an order on ShipStation for fulfillment by their own shipping methods or by ShipStation itself or by third-party shipping companies like FedEx or UPS etc., which ShipStation has partnered with for fulfilling orders placed by customers on its website or mobile apps and so on.
  • Shipment Tracking. Shipments can be tracked using Amazon CloudWatch in order to keep track of their current location i.e., what are the status updates of shipments ordered from ShipStation within its system as well as what are their current transit locations i.e., which transit centers they have reached now etc., how long they took to reach their current transit location from their origin i.e., ShipStation warehouse or fulfillment center etc., what was the average transit time it took for shipments to get from origin location to current transit location etc., and so on and so forth depending on whatever parameters needed for tracking shipments are required by users as per their business requirements or practices etc., in order to make sure that shipments are processed efficiently without any issues arising due to incorrect shipment tracking data being available with them while taking decisions related to shipment processing tasks etc., which lead to delays in fulfilling orders for customers and thus affecting their business negatively in numerous ways like loss of sales revenue, low customer satisfaction ratings which affect future sales adversely etc., all of which can be avoided by integrating ShipStation with CloudWatch so that correct tracking data is always available with users at all times for making informed decisions about shipment processing tasks done or required to be done at any given point in time i.e., while taking necessary actions related to shipments being processed by them at that moment or in near future based on these actions taking place at that moment or required to be taken soon i.e., decision making based on real-time tracking data available with users at that moment or required to become available soon for making these decisions based on immediate situation rather than basing them on outdated tracking data which could lead to incorrect decision making leading into potential business losses if shipment processing task decisions are taken based on old tracking data rather than real-time tracking data which could lead to incorrect decision making leading into potential business losses if shipment processing task decisions are taken based on old tracking data rather than real-time tracking data available with users at that moment which could lead to incorrect decision making leading into potential business losses if shipment processing
