This page introduces Amazon Web Services (AWS) events ingestion in Cisco Cloud Observability.
In Cisco Cloud Observability, an event represents a change in an environment, such as an AWS environment, a SaaS partner service or application, or your applications and services. Examples of events include state-change notifications, lifecycle actions, security incidents, and operational changes in a service.
Cisco Cloud Observability integrates with Amazon EventBridge to ingest events from AWS services. Amazon EventBridge is a serverless service used to route events between applications. Using the API destinations feature, you can push data from AWS to Cisco Cloud Observability.
AWS events ingestion enables you to:
- Collect and analyze real-time event data from various services, applications, and third-party SaaS applications deployed in AWS.
- Track critical occurrences in the system and investigate application issues that may affect performance or security.
- See a centralized view of all events occurring across your AWS environment. This enhances visibility into system performance and helps you identify and troubleshoot issues faster.
- Focus on the events that matter the most to your monitoring strategy by sending only certain events to Cisco Cloud Observability.

Cisco Cloud Observability supports ingesting AWS events and EventBridge partner events from all AWS services. For more information on the event types for each service, see AWS services that generate events.
