What AWS components can be monitored through the AWS Overview role page?

The AWS Overview role page provides a comprehensive view of various AWS components that can be monitored effectively within the Dynatrace environment. By selecting the option that includes Lambda functions and S3 buckets, it highlights the platform's capability to monitor serverless functions and storage services, both of which are key elements of many modern cloud architectures.

Lambda functions are integral to building applications that adhere to a serverless model, allowing for event-driven execution without the need for server management. Monitoring these functions is crucial for ensuring performance, debugging issues, and understanding invocation patterns.

S3 buckets, on the other hand, serve as a cornerstone for data storage in the cloud, and insights into access patterns, latency, and error rates can empower organizations to optimize their data handling and storage solutions.

The other options focus on more limited perspectives of AWS components. Concentrating solely on EC2 instances, VPCs, network interfaces, or database services neglects significant aspects of AWS's diverse offerings. Each of these components is vital in its own context, but the inclusion of Lambda functions and S3 buckets in the monitoring scope offers a broader and more dynamic overview of cloud application performance.
