Auditing and Logging

Auditing

Cloud Trace Service (CTS) records operations on the cloud resources in your account. You can use the logs generated by CTS to perform security analysis, audit compliance, track resource changes, and locate faults.

For details about the CloudTable operations that can be recorded by CTS, see CloudTable Operations That Can Be Recorded by CTS. After you enable CTS and create and configure a tracker, CTS starts recording operations for auditing. For details about how to enable CTS and view trace details, see the Cloud Trace Service Getting Started.

CTS allows you to configure key event notifications. For details, see Configuring Key Event Notifications. With CTS, you can monitor high-risk and sensitive operations related to IAM in real time. If you perform such an operation when using CloudTable, CTS sends a notification to subscribers in real time.

Logging

CloudTable reports all its component operation logs to Log Tank Service (LTS). LTS collects log data from cloud services. By processing massive amounts of logs efficiently, securely, and in real time, LTS provides useful insights for you to optimize the availability and performance of cloud services and applications. It also helps you efficiently perform real-time decision-making, device O&M management, and service trend analysis.
