AWS Service Catalog

In this lesson of the Cloud Practitioner course, we introduce you to the various Management and Governance services currently available in AWS that are relevant to the CLF-C02 exam.

Objectives

• Describe how management services in AWS can assist with auditing, reporting, and monitoring within your AWS environments
• Understand how AWS CloudTrail is used to record and track all AWS API requests
• Understand how AWS Config is used to capture changes to AWS resources
• Describe how Amazon CloudWatch can monitor the health and operational performance of AWS environments

Prerequisites

This lesson is designed for anyone who is new to cloud computing, so no prior experience with AWS is necessary. While it may be helpful to have a basic understanding of AWS and its services, as well as some exposure to AWS Cloud design, implementation, and operations, this is not required as all of the concepts we will introduce in this lesson will be explained and reinforced from the ground up.
