API and CloudFormatin support is added to the Amazon CloudWatch and Dashboards

API and Cloud Formation is now available to support for Amazon CloudWatch Dashboards. With the use of the new dashboard APIs and CloudFormation templates, you can now dynamically build and maintain dashboards which will give you the ability to monitor your infrastructure and applications. Amazon Web Services has introduced four new Dashboards APIs which is PutDashboard, ListDashboard, GetDashboard, and DeleteDashboard. PutDashboard can be used to modify the existing one or create a new dashboard. ListDashboard and DeleteDashboard can be used to get the names or delete multiple dashboards whereas GetDashboard is used to get the details of a specific dashboard. These APIs can be accessed through the AWS SDK or through CLI tools.
