Amazon ElastiCache for Valkey now supports OpenTelemetry metrics and detailed monitoring

Amazon ElastiCache for Valkey now publishes OpenTelemetry metrics to Amazon CloudWatch for your node-based clusters, and each metric carries attributes you can filter and aggregate on with Prometheus Query Language (PromQL) expressions. ElastiCache now offers two monitoring modes. Standard monitoring, the existing experience, continues to publish CloudWatch Metrics (Classic) every 60 seconds and now also publishes a core set of OpenTelemetry metrics at the same interval at no additional charge.
