What is Config?
Config assists you in centralized auditing and governance of cloud resources. It continuously records and evaluates the configuration information and related changes of various cloud resources in different regions under your account, thereby achieving efficient automated supervision and standardized operations of resources.
What problems can Config solve?
Config can solve the following problems:
Global monitoring and standardized operations
When resources of an enterprise are deployed across multiple regions, the management and operations of these resources are dispersed, leading to operation inconvenience and configuration inconsistency. Config displays resources of various types and in different regions in a centralized manner and supports search, enabling enterprises to easily understand the overall status of their current cloud environment.
Continuous compliance of cloud resources
Cloud-based IT resource management of enterprises faces a variety of potential compliance issues. Config provides rules and a conformance package template based on Tencent Cloud's best practices and automatically performs continuous compliance evaluation on the cloud resource configurations under the enterprise account. It assists enterprises in timely governance and efficient automated supervision of cloud resources.
External and internal auditing
Enterprises or users frequently modify resources and relevant configurations during management and operations in the cloud. They are usually required to promptly provide relevant resource operations records for external or internal compliance auditing while the record querying takes a long time. Config records configuration changes and automatically generates a resource configuration timeline to address the following issues:
1. Resource Configuration Lifecycle Record
Config records the configuration information and related changes of each resource starting from its creation. Enterprises and users can quickly find the historical configuration information and related changes of a resource through the timeline to facilitate analysis and auditing.
2. Record Delivery
Config can send historical configuration information and lifecycle records of resources to a COS bucket for storage, fast retrieval, and analysis.
Who are the target customers of Config?
The target customers of Config are those who need to implement auditing and governance of cloud resources. The industries covered include, but are not limited to, finance, gaming, retailing, government affairs, and healthcare. Config are used by customer-side teams responsible for managing cloud resources, such as teams of cloud operations, cloud auditing, and cloud security.
