Explanation:
AWS CloudWatch supports the custom metrics. The user can always capture the custom data and
upload the data to CloudWatch using CLI or APIs. When the user data is more random and not
generated at regular intervals, there can be a period which has no associated data. The user can
either publish the zero (0. Value for that period or not publish the data at all. It is recommended
that the user should publish zero instead of no value to monitor the health of the application. This
is helpful in an alarm as well as in the generation of the sample data count.
