Basic Concepts
Resource
A resource is an entity that you can use on the cloud platform. A resource can be an Elastic Cloud Server (ECS), an Elastic Volume Service (EVS) disk, or a Virtual Private Cloud (VPC).
For details about supported resources and regions, see Services and Regions Supported by Config.
Resource Relationship
A resource relationship indicates how your resources on the cloud platform are associated, for example, EVS disks attached to ECSs and ECSs contained in VPCs.
For details, see Relationships with Supported Resources.
Resource Change Records
Resource change records contain resource changes in a specific period of time.
A record will be generated upon any property or relationship changes to a resource.
You can query the resource change records on the management console or by calling APIs.
Resource Recorder
The resource recorder tracks resource changes on the cloud platform. When a resource is created, modified, or deleted, or the resource relationship changes, an SMN message will be sent to notify you of the change. In addition, the resource change notifications and resource snapshots will be periodically stored into the configured OBS bucket.
Resource Compliance
You can add a rule to evaluate the compliance of your resources.
Advanced Query
Advanced query allows you to quickly query specific resources, helping you obtain resource details, analyze resources from multiple perspectives, and quickly export data reports.
Resource Aggregator
A resource aggregator enables you to aggregate resource configurations and compliance data from multiple accounts or an organization, so that you can centrally view or search for these resource data.
Conformance Package
A conformance package is a collection of rules. Config provides you with conformance packages to centrally create and manage rules, and query compliance data.
