Learn more about Systems Manager Inventory

When you configure AWS Systems Manager Inventory, you specify the type of metadata to collect, the instances from where the metadata should be collected, and a schedule for metadata collection. These configurations are saved with your AWS account as a AWS Systems Manager State Manager association. An association is simply a configuration.

Note

Inventory only collects metadata. It does not collect any personal or proprietary data.
