Amazon Aurora is a relational database engine from Amazon Web Services, available as part of the Amazon Relational Database Service (RDS). Being MySQL and PostgreSQL - compatible and built for the cloud, Amazon Aurora provides security, availability, and reliability with the simplicity of open source databases.
To learn how to create a new Amazon Aurora DB monitor, refer here.
Go to the Monitors Category View by clicking the Monitors tab. Click on RDS in the Amazon Instances under the Cloud Apps Table. Displayed is the bulk configuration view distributed into three tabs:
Click on the monitor name to see all the Amazon Aurora Database metrics listed under the following tabs:
Note: Applications Manager's AWS RDS monitor supports all engine types. However, the supported metrics vary based on the DB Engine types like 'Aurora PgSQL', 'Aurora MySQL' and 'Other engine types' (MySQL, MariaDB, PostgreSQL, Oracle, SQL Server, etc.). Refer to the AWS RDS supported Database Engines to know more.
