# CLOUD AWS ALB DataDog monitors ## How to use this module ``` module "datadog-monitors-cloud-aws-alb" { source = "git::ssh://git@bitbucket.org/morea/terraform.feature.datadog.git//cloud/aws/alb?ref={revision}" environment = "${var.environment}" message = "${module.datadog-message-alerting.alerting-message}" } ``` ## Purpose Creates DataDog monitors with the following checks: - ALB no healthy instances - ALB latency - ALB HTTP code 5xx - ALB HTTP code 4xx - ALB target HTTP code 5xx - ALB target HTTP code 4xx ## Inputs | Name | Description | Type | Default | Required | |------|-------------|:----:|:-----:|:-----:| | alb_no_healthy_instances_message | Custom message for ALB no healthy instances monitor | string | `` | no | | alb_no_healthy_instances_silenced | Groups to mute for ALB no healthy instances monitor | map | `` | no | | alb_no_healthy_instances_time_aggregator | Monitor aggregator for ALB no healthy instances [available values: min, max or avg] | string | `min` | no | | alb_no_healthy_instances_timeframe | Monitor timeframe for ALB no healthy instances [available values: `last_#m` (1, 5, 10, 15, or 30), `last_#h` (1, 2, or 4), or `last_1d`] | string | `last_5m` | no | | artificial_requests_count | Number of false requests used to mitigate false positive in case of low trafic | string | `5` | no | | environment | Architecture environment | string | -
