<a name="monitoring-instance-session-performance"></a>

You can monitor Amazon WorkSpaces Applications fleet instances and session performance using the WorkSpaces Applications console or the CloudWatch console.

Performance metrics are collected at a 5-minute interval. After a new session is provisioned, the first metric data point will show up in 5 minutes. Subsequent metric data points will be available at every 5-minute interval.

Performance metrics are currently available only for multi-session fleets
