Explanation
To enable CloudWatch cross-account observability, you must set up the proper configuration in both the source and monitoring accounts. In the new source account, you deploy the CloudFormation stack that establishes the necessary CloudWatch resource policies and roles. In the monitoring account, you also deploy a CloudFormation stack that configures observability, allowing it to access metrics and logs from the source account. Finally, you add the new source account ID to the monitoring account's configuration policy so that the monitoring account recognizes and accepts data from the source account.
