Oh, for goddamn sure. Half the services on AWS, probably, are very poorly designed or very poorly run (or both). CloudWatch stands out to me as one that is mind-bogglingly buggy and slow. To the point of basically being a "newbie trap" - when I see companies using it for all their logging, I assume it's due to inexperience with the many alternatives.
At least the compute services are reliable.
- yibers 3y agoI actually use cloudwatch quite a lot. I didn't notice many bugs or slowness, but I assume I am missing something. Can you perhaps point to some specific issues you had with Cloudwatch?

- wavemode 3y agoThe user interface is unintuitive, text search is slow, querying is even slower, refining the metric graphs to a time period is really annoying, the graph controls are consistently buggy in my experience... those are just off the top of my head
