While checking my AWS instance (CloudWatch), I noticed that there's no monitor data for memory usage. There are I/O usage like disk and network, as well as CPU usage.



From my own experiences in using VMware Workstation, I also find it hard to determine memory usage of a VM from the host environment.



Is the memory usage of a VM watch-able from host OS? If not, why?
