  • B. Add a StatsD monitoring configuration to the CloudWatch agent for the process. Create a CloudWatch alarm that initiates an AWS Systems Manager Automation runbook to restart the process after the process stops.
  • C. Add a StatsD monitoring configuration to the CloudWatch agent for the process. Create an Amazon EventBridge event rule that initiates an AWS Systems Manager Automation runbook to restart the process after the process stops.
  • D. Add a procstat monitoring configuration to the CloudWatch agent for the process. Create a CloudWatch alarm that initiates an AWS Systems Manager Automation runbook to restart the process after the process stops.

It D and yes Cloudwatch CAN directly initiate AWS Systems Manager Automation runbook.EventBridge could indeed be used to trigger a response to an event, but the configuration of a procstat plugin does not natively integrate with EventBridge for the described monitoring purpose.EventBridge could indeed be used to trigger a response to an event, but the configuration of a procstat plugin does not natively integrate with EventBridge for the described monitoring purpose.
