|
AWS Config |
Core. The solution uses AWS Config as the primary data source for the resources and relationships the solution discovers. |
|
Amazon DynamoDB |
Core. This solution uses DynamoDB to store configuration data for the solution. |
|
Amazon Elastic Container Service (ECS) |
Core. This solution uses Amazon ECS to orchestrate running the task that discovers resources and relationships in your AWS accounts. |
|
AWS Fargate |
Core. This solution uses AWS Fargate on Amazon ECS as the compute layer for the discovery task. |
|
AWS Lambda |
Core. This solution uses serverless Lambda functions, with Node.js and Python runtimes, to handle API calls. |

|
AWS CodeBuild |
Supporting. This solution uses CodeBuild to build the Docker container that contains the code for the discovery task and to deploy the assets for the frontend to Amazon S3. |
|
Amazon Cognito |
Supporting. This solution uses Cognito user pools to authenticate and authorize users to access the solution web UI. |
|
AWS Systems Manager |
Supporting. This solution uses AWS Systems Manager to provide application-level resource monitoring and visualization of resource operations and cost data. |
|
Amazon Virtual Private Cloud |
