AWS Config | Services and Region Support

Question 1

What information does the Config Rules dashboard provide?

Services and Region Support

AWS Config | Management Tools

Answer 1

The Config Rules dashboard gives you an overview of resources tracked by AWS Config, and a summary of current compliance by resource and by rule. When you view compliance by resource, you can determine if any rule that applies to the resource is currently not compliant. You can view compliance by rule, which tells you if any resource under the purview of the rule is currently non-compliant. Using these summary views, you can dive deeper into the Config timeline view of resources, to determine which configuration parameters changed. Using this dashboard, you can start with an overview and drill into fine-grained views that give you full information about changes in compliance status, and which changes caused non-compliance.
