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

Service Overview
The Cloud Monitoring service collects usage status, change information, and logs of operational infrastructure resources, and generates an event to notify when a configured threshold is exceeded. Through this, users can respond quickly to performance degradation and failures, and can conveniently develop resource capacity expansion plans to configure a stable computing environment.
Provided Features
Cloud Monitoring provides the following features.
- Stable computing resource management: You can easily view metrics such as CPU usage, disk usage, and memory usage. When an event occurs in the resources being used, an automatic notification is sent to the designated recipients, enabling rapid fault analysis and response, so computing resources can be operated reliably.
- Convenient Monitoring: Status information about resources can be easily monitored by creating a dashboard. * Provides default and custom dashboards, enabling you to configure various widget types and easily and quickly create dashboards yourself.
- Event Metric Management: Through the web-based Console, you can easily set event metrics with just a few clicks. The event metric settings for the monitoring target (such as event patterns, trigger conditions, occurrence frequency, performance metrics, operational status, etc.) can be varied to suit the usage environment, and threshold and alarm configurations can be managed conveniently.
- Resource Log Management: Collects and stores log data of resources, and allows searching the target logs when needed. Additionally, we metricize events for major keywords and automatically notify the designated person when pre‑set conditions are met, providing a more stable usage environment.
Component
Dashboard
In the monitoring dashboard, you can view the operational status and event status of monitored services and resources, as well as the top usage items.
| Item | Explanation |
|---|---|
| Region | Resource location |
| Data reference time | Reference time of the data displayed on the dashboard |
| Refresh | Refresh the dashboard based on the current time |
| Period setting | Set data query period and refresh interval |
| Monitoring status | Number and status of monitoring targets for each service used in the Account |
| Event History | Display events that occurred in the past 7 days as a graph by risk level. |
| Top 5 usage rates by performance | Display the top five monitoring targets with the highest usage for each major performance metric |
| Event map | Display the number of events per service by severity |
| Event status | Display the list of unprocessed events among the occurred events |
Performance Analysis
In performance analysis, you can identify the main performance metrics of the monitoring target and view the current data and historical records within the period for each metric. Users can view the performance status of the monitoring targets they manage by service or by period, and compare specific performance metrics to analyze the results.
Log Analysis
In log analysis, you collect the logs of the monitoring target, examine their contents, and convert them into metrics—structured data—for monitoring. Each monitoring target provides a default collection log, and users can create custom logs to collect and view additional logs as needed.
Event Management
An event is a configuration that notifies the user when a monitoring target’s performance value meets a specific condition. By configuring events, you can capture essential monitoring information that users need to know without missing it. For example, if you configure events to trigger whenever a performance metric related to overload exceeds a certain threshold, users will receive notifications each time there is a risk of overload during resource operation. Users can proactively respond before problems arise based on this. In event management, you can create such events and configure them to notify designated users whenever a specific value occurs during monitoring.
Preceding Service
Cloud Monitoring has no prerequisite services.
