Amazon CloudWatch now supports querying metrics data up to two weeks old - devamazonaws.blogspot.com

Amazon CloudWatch now allows you to query metrics data up to two weeks in the past using the Metrics Insights query source. CloudWatch Metrics Insights offers fast, flexible, SQL-based queries. This new capability allows you to display, aggregate, or slice and dice metrics data older than 3 hours, for enhanced visualization and investigation.

Previously, when creating dashboards and alarms to monitor dynamic groups of metrics over your resources and applications, you could visualize up to 3 hours of data when using Metrics Insights SQL queries. This enhancement helps you identify trends and investigate impact for a longer period of time, even days after an event. This extended query time range helps improve the operational health of teams and ensures impacts are never missed.

Querying metrics data up to two weeks old with Metrics Insights is now available in the AWS GovCloud (US-East) and AWS GovCloud (US-West) Regions.

The ability to query metrics data up to 2 weeks old is automatically available at no additional cost. Standard pricing applies for alarms, dashboards or API usage on Metrics Insights, see CloudWatch pricing for details. To learn more about metrics queries with Metrics Insights, visit the CloudWatch documentation.
