• Should I enable a

Specific Metrics Receiver

? OR a

Prometheus Receiver

?

The Specific Metrics Receiver is referring to enable any receiver that is relevant for your use case. In this case, you should use Prometheus receiver.

• Do I need a Prometheus server to be able to read the metrics?

No

• Once exported, how does Signoz process the new names? i.e., how can I can find the new metrics by name? Does it use any naming convention?

It follows the same naming convention the cloudwatch exporter sends

Thank you its sorted out!
