Summary

In this chapter, we explored the basic concepts of CloudTrail and CloudWatch. You saw how CloudTrail aids auditing and compliance by recording all access and interactions with the AWS world. We also covered how a CloudWatch dashboard can be configured to visualize metrics across AWS services. There are virtually limitless permutations and combinations of visualizations that can be created using CloudWatch. Finally, we covered how CloudTrail can play nicely with CloudWatch, making it a mature and one-stop solution for application performance monitoring in the cloud.
