About Amazon Config

Amazon Config, sold by Amazon Web Services as AWS Config, tracks how cloud resources are set up. It discovers resources in an account, records their settings and keeps a history of every change.

What Amazon Config offers

  • Configuration recording — captures settings and the relationships between AWS resources.
  • Compliance checks — compares recorded settings with an organisation's policies on a continuing basis.
  • Compliance as code — rules written as code, with remediation actions that can run automatically.
  • Troubleshooting support — links configuration changes to specific events in an account.
  • Security review — looks for potential vulnerabilities and lets teams examine history after an incident.
