AWS Systems Manager Change Manager now displays AWS CloudTrail events associated with change requests
Starting today, customers can view AWS CloudTrail event logs of a change request using AWS Systems Manager Change Manager. The feature helps customers understand which resources were impacted by the change request which provides customers with more visibility into the change request process. Change Manager already helps customers request, approve, implement, and report on operational changes to their application configuration and infrastructure on AWS and on-premises. With this launch, customers can now get the CloudTrail events associated with the change requests within the Change Manager console which offers them more visibility into their changes. For example, if a change was made to restart an EC2 instance, customers can now see which instances were actually impacted as part of the execution and the APIs that were invoked.
