Many (most?) virtual server providers rely on metrics gathered from within the system to provide users/owners/ops with these metrics (Rackspace does this for example).
AWS does not appear to have a system-level agent, but I don't know if I'm just missing it. I think everything I see on the Basic Metrics dashboard is stuff that could be handled in the virtualization system.
So: Does CloudMetrics have a system-level agent that collects CPU, Network, or other stats that they present to users? Or is all that data collected in another layer?
