Our NAT Gateway integration reports data from your NAT Gateway service to your New Relic account using AWS CloudWatch Metric Streams.
Features
With this integration, you can see your NAT Gateway telemetry data in New Relic. You can monitor your services, query incoming data, and build dashboards, to observe everything at a glance.
Activate AWS CloudWatch Metric Streams
To enable AWS CloudWatch Metric Streams, follow the instructions for connecting AWS CloudWatch Metric Streams to New Relic.
Tip
If you already have AWS CloudWatch Metric Streams enabled, you should already see the metrics in New Relic! No need to make any changes.
Find and use data
Data from this integration is attached to our Metric data type.
One way to find your data: Go to one.newrelic.com > All capabilities > Metrics and events and filter by aws.natgateway.
