To integrate Amazon Lambda and Amazon ElastiCache with your monitoring system, reach out to MetricFire. Book a demo with the MetricFire team to discuss integrating Amazon Lambda and Amazon ElastiCache and how that can support your monitoring system.
Amazon Lambda is a cloud-based, fully scalable service that lets you run code without managing or provisioning servers. Amazon Lambda will run your code when you need it and only charges you when you use it. You can run virtually any code for nearly all types of backend applications and services with no administration. Amazon looks after it all for you, including code monitoring and logging, capacity provision and scaling, and operating system and server maintenance.
You can use code that responds automatically to an Amazon DynamoDB table or Amazon's Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3). You can also invoke code using API calls made using AWS SDKs or write code to respond to HTTP requests using Amazon API Gateway. Plus, you can write functions for serverless applications that you can automatically deploy using AWS CodeBuild and AWS CodePipeline. You can create backend services that take advantage of Amazon Web Services inbuilt security, scale, and performance, plus use Amazon Lambda to extend other AWS services with custom logic.
More importantly, Amazon Lambda automatically monitors your code on your behalf and reports metrics through Amazon CloudWatch. Amazon Lambda automatically tracks the number of requests, the invocations per request, and the number of errors triggered by a request.
With MetricFire, you can turbocharge your Amazon Lambda code monitoring services. By integrating Amazon CloudWatch with the MetricFire platform, you can display your Amazon Lambda metrics on aesthetically pleasing dashboards. MetricFire's advanced filtering lets you choose only the data views you want to see and discard the rest. You can also set up simple rules to discard data you no longer keep, plus you can receive alerts via email or Slack when your code is doing something it shouldn't.
Amazon ElastiCache is an in-memory data store and cache that supports resource-heavy applications that require sub-millisecond response times. It delivers secure and fast performance by utilizing an end-to-end optimized stack that runs on customer dedicated nodes. Plus, Amazon ElastiCache is fully managed, including tasks such as setup, configuration, hardware provisioning, software patching, failure recovery and backups. ElastiCache supports two open-source in-memory caching engines which are named Memcached and Redis.
With Amazon ElastiCache, you can quickly set up and run many popular open-source compatible in-memory data stores in the cloud. Its fully scalable architecture lets you boost your existing databases' performance or build data-intensive apps by retrieving data from low latency and high throughput in-memory data stores. For this reason, Amazon ElastiCache is often used to improve the performance of session stores, gaming apps, geospatial services, caching, queuing and Real-Time Analytics.
One of the key features of Amazon ElastiCache is its scalability, allowing you to scale-up, scale-in, and scale-out to meet your application demands. It supports both write and memory scaling with sharding.
ElastiCache continuously monitors your data storage to keep your workloads up and running, which is where MetricFire comes to the fore.

MetricFire is a full-scale platform that offers infrastructure, system, and application monitoring using a suite of open-source monitoring tools. The platform allows you to use Hosted Graphite and Dashboards-as-a-Service to visualise your metrics on aesthetic dashboards.
MetricFire offers its users a complete ecosystem of end-to-end infrastructure monitoring, which is made up of popular open-source monitoring software services: Graphite, and Grafana. As well, plugins for a number of other open-source projects are preconfigured, such as StatsD, collectd, and Kubernetes. You get all these within a hosted environment as a single product. Not only does MetricFire fit well into the infrastructure monitoring use-case, such as network monitoring and server monitoring, but we also do application monitoring and business intelligence.
Through this hosted environment, MetricFire works to boost the unique features of open-source projects to give you more functionality than the original products. Below are some of the MetricFire features at a glance:
Cloud Monitoring
Hosted Graphite
Dashboards
The key thing to remember is that Hosted Graphite by MetricFire is more than just Graphite. Our Hosted Graphite product actually adds data dimensionality and better data storage.
The benefits of MetricFire are:
Simple, low-cost pricing
A structured pricing model based on unique time series metrics allows you to work within your budget. The predictability and transparent pricing allow you to keep your costs in check and plan for the future. 1 metric is 1 metric.
Easy-to-use dashboards
Easily share your dashboards with clients for free.
Responsive alerting
Alert notification integrations PagerDuty, Slack, email, and webhooks.
Freedom of customization
Custom metrics through your code.
Fantastic customer support
Highly available support is provided by engineers for engineers to get you set up quickly.
Enterprise-ready
Dedicated clusters for users that need their own environment.
“We now have over ten times the amount of metrics we started with, and on different accounts. One of the great things about MetricFire is that scaling to support this increase has been hassle-free, requiring no additional work on our side.”
“Building and managing an on-premise installation at this scale would require a lot of engineer time, especially in the first year...we use this engineering time to work on initiatives closer to our core business”
“There’s complete transparency with everything MetricFire do which means we can accurately predict what we’ll be spending and comfortably keep within our budget.”
"Every time I have a question, I get an answer from support after just a couple of hours. Their technical knowledge is excellent.”
