Suggested Answer: A 🗳️
With AWS CloudWatch, the user can publish data points for a metric that share not only the same time stamp, but also the same namespace and dimensions.
CloudWatch can accept multiple data points in the same PutMetricData call with the same time stamp. The only thing that the user needs to take care of is that the size of a PutMetricData request is limited to 8KB for HTTP GET requests and 40KB for HTTP POST requests.

Selected Answer: A
When sending custom metrics to CloudWatch using the PutMetricData API, it's important for the user to be aware of the request size limits. For HTTP GET requests, the maximum size of a request is 8KB, and for HTTP POST requests, the maximum size is 40KB. These limits ensure efficient and manageable data transfer to CloudWatch.
