Starting today, [AWS Elemental MediaConnect](https://aws.amazon.com/mediaconnect/) now publishes flow metrics to [Amazon CloudWatch](https://aws.amazon.com/cloudwatch/) in 1-second intervals, instead of the previous 1-minute interval rate. These metrics can be retrieved using the console or the CloudWatch API at 1-second periods for up to 3 hours after the datapoints are created.
With this improvement, you get a closer to real-time view of the performance of your flows, enabling you to diagnose and troubleshoot issues as they happen. You can also create CloudWatch High Resolution Metrics Alarms that will trigger more rapidly than the existing 1-minute metrics so you can respond to alarms faster than before. All existing MediaConnect metrics are now available at 1-second intervals.
Metrics from MediaConnect are published to your AWS account at no cost. For pricing on CloudWatch, the metric retrieval API, and High Resolution Metrics Alarms, please visit the [CloudWatch pricing page](https://aws.amazon.com/cloudwatch/pricing/).
The new 1-second metric interval feature is available in all [AWS Regions](https://aws.amazon.com/about-aws/global-infrastructure/regional-product-services/) where MediaConnect is available. For more information on MediaConnect, please visit the [MediaConnect overview page](https://aws.amazon.com/mediaconnect/) and read the [MediaConnect documentation](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/mediaconnect/latest/ug/what-is.html).
