Custom widgets can help you to correlate trends over time and spot issues more easily by displaying related data from different sources side by side on CloudWatch dashboards. You can react to potential issues faster by adding buttons to your dashboards that start automated run books or take other remediation steps. Custom widgets allow you to extend your CloudWatch dashboards’ out of the box capabilities including line, bar and pie charts with rich, business specific visualizations that represent the operational health and performance of your workloads.
