MetricDatum
Encapsulates the information sent to either create a metric or add new values to be aggregated into an existing metric.
Types
Properties
The dimensions associated with the metric.
The name of the metric.
The statistical values for the metric.
Valid values are 1 and 60. Setting this to 1 specifies this metric as a high-resolution metric, so that CloudWatch stores the metric with sub-minute resolution down to one second. Setting this to 60 specifies this metric as a regular-resolution metric, which CloudWatch stores at 1-minute resolution. Currently, high resolution is available only for custom metrics. For more information about high-resolution metrics, see High-Resolution Metrics in the Amazon CloudWatch User Guide.
When you are using a Put operation, this defines what unit you want to use when storing the metric.
Array of numbers representing the values for the metric during the period. Each unique value is listed just once in this array, and the corresponding number in the Counts array specifies the number of times that value occurred during the period. You can include up to 150 unique values in each PutMetricData action that specifies a Values array.
