Fleet Usage Metrics for Multi-session Fleets - Amazon WorkSpaces Applications

Fleet Usage Metrics for Multi-session Fleets

The following are fleet usage metrics for multi-session fleets.

Metric Description Dimensions Statistics Units
CapacityUtilization

The percentage of sessions in a fleet that are being used, using the following formula.

CapacityUtilization = (ActiveUserSessionCapacity / ActualUserSessionCapacity) * 100

Monitoring this metric helps with decisions about increasing or decreasing the value of a fleet's desired capacity.

[Fleet] Average, Minimum, Maximum Percent
ActualUserSessionCapacity

The total number of session slots that are available for streaming or are currently streaming.

ActualUserSessionCapacity = AvailableUserSessionCapacity + ActiveUserSessionCapacity
[Fleet] Average, Minimum, Maximum Count
AvailableUserSessionCapacity

The number of idle session slots currently available for user sessions.

AvailableUserSessionCapacity = ActualUserSessionCapacity - ActiveUserSessions
[Fleet] Average, Minimum, Maximum Count
DesiredUserSessionCapacity

The total number of session slots that are either running or pending. This represents the total number of concurrent streaming sessions your fleet can support in a steady state.

DesiredUserSessionCapacity = ActualUserSessionCapacity + PendingUserSessionCapacity
[Fleet] Average, Minimum, Maximum Count
ActiveUserSessionCapacity

The number of user sessions currently being used for streaming sessions.

[Fleet] Average, Minimum, Maximum Count
PendingUserSessionCapacity

The number of session slots being provisioned by WorkSpaces Applications. Represents the additional number of streaming sessions the fleet can support after provisioning is complete. When provisioning starts, it usually takes 10-20 minutes for an instance to become available for streaming.

[Fleet] Average, Minimum, Maximum Count
RunningUserSessionCapacity

The total number of session slots currently that are available for streaming or are currently streaming. Represents the number of concurrent streaming sessions that can be supported by the fleet in its current state.

This metric is provided for Always-On fleets only, and has the same value as the ActualUserSessionCapacity metric.

[Fleet] Average, Minimum, Maximum Count
DrainingCapacity

The number of instances in Drain Mode.

[Fleet] Average, Minimum, Maximum Count
DrainModeActiveUserSessionCapacity

The number of active user sessions on instances in Drain Mode.

[Fleet] Average, Minimum, Maximum Count
DrainModeUnusedUserSessionCapacity

The number of unused session slots on instances in Drain Mode which cannot be used for user session provisioning.

[Fleet] Average, Minimum, Maximum Count
ActualCapacity

The total number of instances that are available for streaming or are currently streaming. For multi-session fleets, this metric represents instance-level capacity. The relationship between instance-level and session-level capacity is as follows:

ActualUserSessionCapacity = ActualCapacity × (Maximum number of user sessions per instance)
ActualCapacity = ActualUserSessionCapacity / (Maximum number of user sessions per instance)
[Fleet] Average, Minimum, Maximum Count
DesiredCapacity

The total number of instances that are either running or pending. This represents the total number of instances your fleet targets in a steady state. For multi-session fleets, the relationship between instance-level and session-level capacity is as follows:

DesiredUserSessionCapacity = DesiredCapacity × (Maximum number of user sessions per instance)
DesiredCapacity = DesiredUserSessionCapacity / (Maximum number of user sessions per instance)
[Fleet] Average, Minimum, Maximum Count
InUseCapacity

The number of instances currently being used for streaming sessions. For multi-session fleets, an instance is considered in use if it has at least one active user session. The relationship between instance-level and session-level capacity is as follows:

ActiveUserSessionCapacity = InUseCapacity × (Maximum number of user sessions per instance)
InUseCapacity = ActiveUserSessionCapacity / (Maximum number of user sessions per instance)
[Fleet] Average, Minimum, Maximum Count
PendingCapacity

The number of instances being provisioned by WorkSpaces Applications. Represents the additional number of instances the fleet will have after provisioning is complete. When provisioning starts, it usually takes 10-20 minutes for an instance to become available for streaming. For multi-session fleets, the relationship between instance-level and session-level capacity is as follows:

PendingUserSessionCapacity = PendingCapacity × (Maximum number of user sessions per instance)
PendingCapacity = PendingUserSessionCapacity / (Maximum number of user sessions per instance)
[Fleet] Average, Minimum, Maximum Count
RunningCapacity

The total number of instances currently running. Represents the number of instances that can support streaming sessions in the fleet's current state. For multi-session fleets, the relationship between instance-level and session-level capacity is as follows:

RunningUserSessionCapacity = RunningCapacity × (Maximum number of user sessions per instance)
RunningCapacity = RunningUserSessionCapacity / (Maximum number of user sessions per instance)

This metric is provided for Always-On fleets only, and has the same value as the ActualCapacity metric.

[Fleet] Average, Minimum, Maximum Count
InsufficientCapacityError

The number of session requests rejected due to lack of capacity. This metric applies the same way for both single-session and multi-session fleets.

You can set alarms to use this metric to be notified of users waiting for streaming sessions.
