# AWS Elemental MediaPackage live content metrics
<a name="metrics"></a>

The `AWS/MediaPackage` namespace includes the following metrics for live content. AWS Elemental MediaPackage publishes metrics to CloudWatch every minute, if not sooner.


| Metric | Description | 
| --- | --- | 
|  ActiveInput  | Indicates if an input has been used as the source for an endpoint in MediaPackage (it has been active). A value of 1 indicates that the input was active, and a 0 (zero) indicates that it wasn't. Units: None<br />Valid dimension: +  Combination of `IngestEndpoint` and `OriginEndpoint`  | 
|  EgressBytes  | Number of bytes that MediaPackage successfully sends for each request. If MediaPackage doesn't receive any requests for output in the specified interval, then no data is given.Units: Bytes<br />Valid statistics:+  `Average` – Average bytes (`Sum`/`SampleCount`) that AWS Elemental MediaPackage outputs over the configured interval. <br />+  `Maximum` – Largest individual output request (in bytes) made to AWS Elemental MediaPackage. <br />+  `Minimum` – Smallest individual output request (in bytes) made to AWS Elemental MediaPackage. <br />+  `SampleCount` – Number of requests that's used in the statistical calculation. <br />+  `Sum` – Total number of bytes that AWS Elemental MediaPackage outputs over the configured interval. <br />Valid dimensions: +  `Channel` <br />+  Combination of `Channel` and `OriginEndpoint` <br />+  `PackagingConfiguration` <br />+  No dimension  | 
|  EgressRequestCount  | Number of content requests that AWS Elemental MediaPackage receives. If MediaPackage doesn't receive any requests for output in the specified interval, then no data is given.Units: Count<br />Valid statistics:+  `Sum` – Total number of output requests that AWS Elemental MediaPackage receives. <br />Valid dimensions: +  `Channel` <br />+  Combination of `Channel` and `OriginEndpoint` <br />+  `StatusCodeRange` <br />+  Combination of `Channel` and `StatusCodeRange` <br />+  Combination of `Channel`, `OriginEndpoint`, and `StatusCodeRange` <br />+  `PackagingConfiguration` <br />+  Combination of `PackagingConfiguration` and `StatusCodeRange` <br />+  No dimension  | 
|  EgressResponseTime  | The time that it takes MediaPackage to process each output request. If MediaPackage doesn't receive any requests for output in the specified interval, then no data is given.Units: Milliseconds<br />Valid statistics:+  `Average` – Average amount of time (`Sum`/`SampleCount`) that it takes AWS Elemental MediaPackage to process output requests over the configured interval. <br />+  `Maximum` – Longest amount of time (in milliseconds) that it takes AWS Elemental MediaPackage to process an output request and provide a response. <br />+  `Minimum` – Shortest amount of time (in milliseconds) that it takes AWS Elemental MediaPackage to process an output request and provide a response. <br />+  `SampleCount` – Number of requests that's used in the statistical calculation. <br />+  `Sum` – Total amount of time that it takes AWS Elemental MediaPackage to process output requests over the configured interval.  <br />Valid dimensions: +  `Channel` <br />+  Combination of `Channel` and `OriginEndpoint` <br />+  `PackagingConfiguration`  | 
|  IngressBytes  | Number of bytes of content that AWS Elemental MediaPackage receives for each input request. If MediaPackage doesn't receive any requests for input in the specified interval, then no data is given.Units: Bytes<br />Valid statistics:+  `Average` – Average bytes (`Sum`/`SampleCount`) that MediaPackage receives over the configured interval. <br />+  `Maximum` – Largest individual input request (in bytes) made to AWS Elemental MediaPackage. <br />+  `Minimum` – Smallest individual input request (in bytes) made to AWS Elemental MediaPackage. <br />+  `SampleCount` – Number of requests that's used in the statistical calculation. <br />+  `Sum` – Total number of bytes that AWS Elemental MediaPackage receives over the configured interval. <br />Valid dimensions: +  `Channel` <br />+  Combination of `Channel` and `IngestEndpoint` <br />+  No dimension  | 
|  IngressResponseTime  | The time that it takes MediaPackage to process each input request. If MediaPackage doesn't receive any requests for input in the specified interval, then no data is given.Units: Milliseconds<br />Valid statistics:+  `Average` – Average amount of time (`Sum`/`SampleCount`) that it takes MediaPackage to process input requests over the configured interval. <br />+  `Maximum` – Longest amount of time (in milliseconds) that it takes AWS Elemental MediaPackage to process an input request and provide a response. <br />+  `Minimum` – Shortest amount of time (in milliseconds) that it takes AWS Elemental MediaPackage to process an input request and provide a response. <br />+  `SampleCount` – Number of requests that's used in the statistical calculation. <br />+  `Sum` – Total amount of time that it takes MediaPackage to process input requests over the configured interval.  <br />Valid dimensions: +  `Channel` <br />+  Combination of `Channel` and `IngestEndpoint` <br />+  No dimension  | 

## AWS Elemental MediaPackage live dimensions
<a name="dimensions"></a>

You can filter the `AWS/MediaPackage` data using the following dimensions.


| Dimension | Description | 
| --- | --- | 
| No Dimension | Metrics are aggregated and shown for all channels, endpoints, or status codes. | 
| `Channel` | Metrics are shown only for the specified channel.<br />Value: The autogenerated GUID of the channel.<br />Can be used alone or with other dimensions: +  Alone to show metrics for only the specified channel. <br />+  With the `originEndpoint` dimension to show metrics for the specified endpoint that's associated with the specified channel.  | 
| `IngestEndpoint` | Metrics are shown only for the specified ingest endpoint on a channel.<br />Value: The autogenerated GUID of the ingest endpoint.<br />Can be used with the following dimensions: +  With the `channel` dimension to show metrics for the specified ingest endpoint that's associated with the specified channel. <br />+  With the `originEndpoint` dimension to show metrics for the specified ingest endpoint that's associated with the specified endpoint.  | 
| `OriginEndpoint` | Metrics are shown for the specified channel and endpoint combination.<br />Value: The autogenerated GUID of the endpoint.<br />Must be used with the `channel` dimension.  | 
| `StatusCodeRange` | Metrics are shown for the specified status code range. <br />Value: `2xx`, `3xx`, `4xx`, or `5xx`.<br />Can be used alone or with other dimensions:+  Alone to show all output requests for the specified status range. <br />+  With the `channel` dimension to show output requests for all endpoints that are associated with the specified channel, with the specified status code range. <br />+  With the `channel` and `originEndpoint` dimensions to show output requests with a specific status code range on the specified endpoint that's associated with the specified channel.  |
