Explanation:
CloudWatch is used to monitor AWS as well as the custom services. It provides either basic or
detailed
monitoring for the supported AWS products. In basic monitoring, a service sends data points to
CloudWatch every five minutes, while in detailed monitoring a service sends data points to
CloudWatch every minute. Elastic Load Balancing includes 10 metrics and 2 dimensions, and
sends data to CloudWatch every minute. This does not cost extra.
