How Do I Configure Database Audit?

After purchasing a database audit instance, you need to add the database to be audited to the instance and install an agent on the database, application, or proxy side. A database can be audited only after it is connected to a database audit instance.

For easier O&M, you can deploy the database audit agent in a large number of containerized applications or databases in batches. This makes configuration quicker and easier. For details, see Deploying the Database Audit Agent in a Container.

Figure 1 illustrates the procedure for configuring database audit.
