AWS Certified Solutions Architect – Professional — Question 452

What is the maximum number of data points for an HTTP data request that a user can include in PutMetricRequest in the CloudWatch?

Answer options

• A. 30
• B. 50
• C. 10
• D. 20

Correct answer: D

Explanation

Amazon CloudWatch restricts the size of each PutMetricData (PutMetricRequest) API request to a maximum of 20 data points. If you need to publish more than 20 data points, you must batch them into multiple requests. The other options (10, 30, and 50) do not represent the correct AWS service limit for this specific operation.
