<a name="USER_Monitoring.OS.CloudWatchLogs"></a>

After you have enabled Enhanced Monitoring for your DB cluster, you can view the metrics for it using CloudWatch Logs, with each log stream representing a single DB instance or DB cluster being monitored. The log stream identifier is the resource identifier (`DbiResourceId`) for the DB instance or DB cluster.
