Best Tool for Deep Learning
Reviewed on 2022/05/14
Pros
As a product manager, my AWS Config journey is makes me better to understand my product and its working environment. Helped me to learned metadata structure, configurations and relationships over events.
Cons
Learning curve is huge if you are not a technical user. Documentation really helps but also you gonna need an engineer to walkthrough with you. Simplified version for non-tech users should be handy.

Overall, my experience with AWS config has been positive as it is reliable and gets the job done. I primarily use it to monitor my AWS resources and any historical changes in configurations. I haven't had any issues with using AWS config yet.
Pros
AWS config is reliable and allows me to monitor my AWS resources and has a record of changes of configurations as well which is useful for me to monitor and check.
Cons
Nothing in particular, it gets the job done and it is reliable.

AWS Monitoring Infrastructure
Reviewed on 2021/12/04
Pros
Quicker and more straightforward review interaction of your AWS administrations arrangement
Keeping history of changes implies its simple to detect any issues that happen at whatever point any progressions occurred
It gives you a setup depiction of all of your AWS assets and you can store it in AWS S3.
You can coordinate it with AWS CloudTrail to correspond arrangement changes to specific occasions in your record.
Cons
Some time the Config Rules are hard to comprehend and arrange. They could be made simple or have GUI to arrange them. I realize it is hard to construct yet that would be a decent success.
Not the most instinctive interface, but rather with a little becoming acclimated to it is OK.

Best Native Tool for Tracking Configuration Changes
Reviewed on 2022/04/01
Excellent.
Excellent.
Pros
It is built into AWS and supports most services natively. There is no setup and no cost. I use it whenever I need to see if a service or asset is compliant with our needs or to see changes over time to assets.
Cons
It does not show the names of individual assets, only the AWS ID. This is annoying when trying to find a specific item in the console.

Using config for an audit log and compliance manager has really given us a peace of mind managing a large number of accounts. We dont really have to worry about something going wrong because we can auto remediate or at least alert on it.
Pros
Using AWS config can be a daunting task as there are essentially endless things it can be used for to keep track of log ins to changes in ec2 tags, but if you set up the correct reporting and alerting using other native AWS tooling you'll have an audit trail and set of compliant resources in your account.
Cons
I would say it is hard to get started from the ground level, but aws provides extensive white papers, examples, videos, and training to get you running at full speed without too much effort.

Broad view of your services
Reviewed on 2022/05/14
Pros
I like that AWS config allows you to view the configuration of your resources in one place. Configuration history is a very useful tool for tracking configuration changes over time, and you can even compare to your AWS CloudTrail logs to see which users are changing config in your accounts.
Cons
There is a steep learning curve for using this software. AWS provides training, youtube videos, tutorials etc, so I would recommend starting there to lessen the incline of this curve.
