Create AWS telemetry instances

To create an instance of the CSV provider, build a YAML file (instance.yml in this example) with the definition of the instance:

# AWS Telemetry Instance
provider: AWS
config:
  accessKeyId: access_key_id
  secretAccessKey: secret_access_key

Then you can create the instance for the aws-system using the Akamas CLI:

akamas create telemetry-instance instance.yml aws-system

Configuration options

When you create an instance of the AWS provider, you should specify some configuration information to allow the provider to correctly extract and process metrics from your CSV files.

You can specify configuration information within the config part of the YAML of the instance definition.

Required properties

  • accessKeyId - the access key id of your chosen IAM use

  • secretAccessKey - the secret access key of your chosen IAM user

Telemetry instance reference

The following represents the complete configuration reference for the telemetry provider instance.

provider: AWS                                # This is an instance of the AWS provider
config:
  accessKeyId: access_key_id                 # The access key id of your IAM user
  secretAccessKey: secret_access_key         # The secret access key of your IAM user

Then you can create the instance for the aws-system using the Akamas CLI:

akamas create telemetry-instance instance.yml aws-system

Configuration options

Telemetry instance reference

The following YAML file represents a template to define the telemetry provider instance.

provider: AWS                                # This is an instance of the AWS provider
config:
  accessKeyId: access_key_id                 # The access key id of your IAM user
  secretAccessKey: secret_access_key         # The secret access key of your IAM user
