Uses of CloudWatchAgentServerPolicy ; It allows the CloudWatch agent to publish metrics and logs to CloudWatch on behalf of the IAM role or user the policy is attached to. It provides permissions for the agent to access and manage its own configuration files stored in S3. The policy grants permissions across multiple AWS services like CloudWatch, S3, KMS etc. to allow end-to-end functionality of the monitoring agent.
