A DynamoDB throttle alarm fires at 2 am. You confirm the spike in CloudWatch, then check ElastiCache in a second dashboard, then Redshift in a third. Cache hit rate dropped, which hammered DynamoDB, which stalled the zero-ETL export. Three services, three dashboards, one cascade you can only trace by hand. This guide maps the specific metrics, alarm thresholds, and configuration steps for each service, and then addresses the observability delta that CloudWatch leaves unresolved: cross-service co
