Best Practices

  1. Review and update anomaly monitors regularly so they align with current cost-management goals.
  2. Combine Group by options and filters to create focused, actionable monitors.
  3. Assign severity levels that match the potential impact of an anomaly.
  4. Test notification workflows to confirm they work as expected.
By configuring and managing your anomaly monitors effectively, you can detect and address cost irregularities before they escalate.
