Description of ALB Monitoring Items
When your ALB encounters network problems such as request timeouts and traffic rate limiting, or if you want to gain a deeper understanding of the load and performance of ALB, you can monitor key indicators of ALB to achieve real-time tracking, accurate analysis, and rapid location of issues, thereby ensuring stable and efficient operation of the service.
