Watchdog RCA enables APM customers to identify causal relationships between different symptoms across your applications and infrastructures. This information helps you to speed up your root cause analysis and reduce your mean time to recovery (MTTR).

This screenshot is outdated. We should remove it for now.


Watchdog can group related data together, draw connections between groups, and prioritize the most important areas to focus on.
The graph in this alert shows the latency values of the ELB in three different availability zones. Watchdog detected similar anomalies in this metric from a single load balancer enabled in three availability zones, and automatically grouped these findings together in a single alert. After a period of consistently low latency, the metric in all three AZs rises sharply—in the highlighted area of the graph, which indicates the time frame of the anomaly.
