Previously requiring switching tools, operators can now triage unhealthy services within CloudWatch by examining related compute environments, logs, and traces on a unified service overview page. The application map surfaces health rankings and runtime indicators across EKS, ECS, Lambda, and EC2 workloads.

This integration reduces troubleshooting time by letting users instantly identify degraded services and drill down into relevant metrics and error details without leaving Application Signals. It is available across all AWS Regions supporting CloudWatch Application Signals, helping teams efficiently manage distributed application health.
