With AWS Config, you are charged based on the number of configuration items recorded, the number of active AWS Config rule evaluations and the number of conformance pack evaluations in your account. A configuration item is a record of the configuration state of a resource in your AWS account. An AWS Config rule evaluation is a compliance state evaluation of a resource by an AWS Config rule in your AWS account, and a conformance pack evaluation is the evaluation of a resource by an AWS Config rule within the conformance pack.

Considered Both Products	Amazon AWS Verified User Chose AWS Config As this is native to AWS, we didn't consider anything else. It checks and monitors AWS resources so to check and monitor any other services we use other software. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose AWS Config I have not assessed any other tools that do a similar function to AWS Config. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose AWS Config Despite the comparison it is not really apples to apples, the main purpose of the service is quite similar which is to monitor your application or services. In terms of AWS services, AWS Config provides more options to monitor and log your service on the infrastructure level … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose AWS Config Products don't appear [in the list] but looked at Azure Functions and Service Bus but as per criticisms of AWS Config does enforce vendor lock-in - AWS Config is only used for AWS workloads. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose AWS Config I do not know or have used any other product in AWS cloud space that matches what AWS Config provides. We have some custom built monitoring and governance, however that is there because AWS Config does not provide it currently. Incentivized Helpful?
