AWS HealthImaging Adds New Metrics to Improve Monitoring and Performance Visibility

Amazon Web Services has introduced additional metrics for AWS HealthImaging, expanding the service’s monitoring and observability capabilities through Amazon CloudWatch. The new metrics provide customers with deeper visibility into imaging data ingestion, storage and retrieval performance, helping organizations track system health and usage patterns more effectively. The update is intended to support operational insight and performance optimization for large-scale medical imaging workloads. Metrics provided allows teams to better manage single and multi-tenant workloads at a petabyte scale.

Healthcare providers and life sciences organizations increasingly rely on cloud-based imaging repositories to manage growing volumes of DICOM data. As imaging datasets expand, monitoring throughput, latency, and service utilization becomes critical for maintaining clinical workflow performance and meeting compliance requirements. By expanding metrics within AWS HealthImaging, AWS is reinforcing its focus on operational transparency for regulated workloads. For healthcare IT and platform teams, the update enables more proactive capacity planning, performance troubleshooting, and governance as imaging data management shifts further into cloud environments. The feature is available in US East (N. Virginia), US West (Oregon), Asia Pacific (Sydney) and Europe (Ireland).
