Interoperable functions - Management and Governance Cloud Environment Guide

Interoperable functions

The eight management and governance functions, supported by AWS services and AWS Partner solutions, work together and interoperate to reduce complexity. Outputs from these functions are used to inform or integrate with other functions. For monitoring and observability this includes:

  • Incorporating complementary Controls to observe changes and highlight them in the observability tools.

  • Network capabilities that have VPC Flow Logs archived with the central infrastructure log archives and included in the log aggregation tools.

  • Access to observability tooling defined by Identity management with changes to configuration recorded.

  • Security management with observability by design, and specific systems to alert for changes in observability practices.

  • Service management frameworks integrated to observability with operational tooling such as patch management and change and incident management.

  • Cloud Financial Management with observability measures to alert for changes (including outliers in both upper and lower spend) in incurred and forecasted costs.

  • Sourcing and distribution for both custom solutions and purchased solutions with specific logging integrated with your observability design.
