I always thought this is a horrible idea because upon CPU credit exhaustion the AWS metrics show CPU utilisation including the burst. For example, if you run out of CPU credits for t2.micro it will show around 15% in AWS whilst on the instance itself you will see 100%.
- nunez 9y agoi think you can alarm on remaining CPU credits: https://serverfault.com/a/828193 https://serverfault.com/a/828193
- philliphaydon 9y agoUsing t2 rds in production for 1 year for some stuff at work. We used cloudwatch to monitor the cpu credit balance. Moved from t2 small to t2 medium. Fixed some queries that used too much cpu. Still running strong. Never had down time.
