In Amazon CloudWatch, custom metrics are organized and grouped using namespaces. A namespace is a container for CloudWatch metrics that allows you to isolate and categorize metrics from different applications or services. According to the WGU Cloud Deployment and Operations Study Guide (Section 4.1, CloudWatch Metrics), each custom metric must be assigned to a namespace, which acts as a unique identifier to prevent naming collisions and facilitate metric management. Options like Service, Date, and Value are not used for grouping metrics in this context.

I’m a bit confused; I thought it might be grouped by Service instead of Namespace. Did we cover that?

I think custom metrics are grouped by Namespace, but I'm not entirely sure if that's the only way.
