According to Samsung Cloud Platform’s policy, the Cloud Monitoring service is scheduled to be discontinued.
Accordingly, starting after the September 2026 release, monitoring of Samsung Cloud Platform resources through Cloud Monitoring will no longer be possible.
With a new alternative service, you can continuously perform resource monitoring by leveraging ServiceWatch released in October 2025.
ServiceWatch provides more modern and powerful features, replacing Cloud Monitoring to deliver a seamless monitoring environment.
Detailed information about ServiceWatch can be found in the ServiceWatch Overview.
※ For some Database and Data Analytics services, refer to the user guide of the respective service for the service watch implementation schedule.
