Amazon EventBridge announces new event delivery latency metric for Event Buses

Amazon EventBridge Event Bus now provides an end-to-end event delivery latency metric in Amazon CloudWatch that tracks the duration between event ingestion and successful delivery to the targets on your Event Bus. This new IngestionToInvocationSuccessLatency allows you to now detect and respond to event processing delays caused by under-performing, under-scaled, or unresponsive targets.

Amazon EventBridge Event Bus is a serverless event router that enables you to create highly scalable event-driven applications by routing events between your own applications, third-party SaaS applications, and other AWS services. You can set up rules to determine where to send your events, allowing for applications to react to changes in your systems as they occur. With the new IngestionToInvocationSuccessLatency metric you can now better monitor and understand event delivery latency to your targets, increasing the observability of your event-driven architecture.

Support for the new end-to-end latency metric for Event Buses is now available in all commercial AWS Regions. To learn more about the new IngestionToInvocationSuccessLatency metric for Amazon EventBridge Event Buses, please read our blog post and documentation.
