Microsoft Workloads on AWS Blog



This article explains how to enable Amazon CloudWatch Application Signals for .NET applications running on Amazon EKS, providing comprehensive observability without code changes.

  • Uses AWS Distro for OpenTelemetry (ADOT) to auto-instrument .NET applications
  • Automatically collects metrics and traces, creating operational dashboards
  • Provides key insights like call volume, availability, latency, and errors
  • Demonstrates implementation using a sample Cart and Delivery API microservices architecture
  • Shows how to configure Kubernetes deployments with OpenTelemetry annotations

The solution simplifies application monitoring by automatically discovering service components, generating dashboards, and correlating telemetry data, allowing teams to focus more on innovation and less on manual observability setup.
