CloudTrail Lake simplifies activity log analysis by integrating collection, storage, optimization, and query in the same product. By consolidating these features into one environment, CloudTrail Lake eliminates the need for separate data processing pipelines that span across teams and products. An integrated SQL experience enables you to more easily query your CloudTrail data. CloudTrail Lake also features sample queries to help you get started with writing queries for common scenarios, such as collecting a user's activity, that can accelerate security investigations. With immutable event data storage and a default retention period of seven years, CloudTrail Lake can meet the compliance requirements of most users. CloudTrail Lake can also collect events from multiple AWS regions and accounts.
You can enable CloudTrail Lake in the CloudTrail console, by using the AWS Software Development Kits (SDKs), or by using the AWS Command Line Interface (CLI). CloudTrail Lake is currently available in the following regions: US East (N. Virginia), US East (Ohio), US West (N. California), US West (Oregon), Canada (Central), Europe (Ireland), Europe (London), Europe (Paris), Europe (Frankfurt), Europe (Stockholm), Asia Pacific (Tokyo), Asia Pacific (Seoul), Asia Pacific (Osaka), Asia Pacific (Singapore), Asia Pacific (Sydney), Asia Pacific (Mumbai), South America (Sao Paulo), Europe (Milan), Asia Pacific (Hong Kong), Middle East (Bahrain), and South Africa (Cape Town).
