It looks like Cloudwatch specifies that they send new metrics over at 5m or 1m intervals. https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/UserGuide/using-cloudwatch-new.html
The doc you linked mentions that the exporter checks every 10m by default. It looks like that is set here in src/main/java/io/prometheus/cloudwatch/CloudWatchCollector.java 148: int defaultRange = 600; 152: int defaultDelay = 600; On Thursday, May 14, 2020 at 4:12:42 AM UTC-7, snedi wrote: > > In the Readme it is mentioned about the Timestamps: > > > In practice this means that if you evaluate an instant vector at the > current time, you will not see data from CloudWatch.
