HAQM Relational Database Service (RDS) now sends all service events to HAQM CloudWatch Events, allowing you to track and respond to changes in your HAQM RDS resources.
Supported resource types include database instances, database clusters, parameter groups, and database snapshots. Rules for handling HAQM RDS events in CloudWatch Events can be created with a few clicks in the AWS Console. You can build HAQM CloudWatch Event rules to trigger a variety of actions including running AWS Lambda functions and HAQM ECS tasks. You can even use cross-account event delivery to monitor HAQM RDS service events across your organization.
CloudWatch Events support is available in all AWS Regions for all HAQM RDS database engines including HAQM Aurora. To learn more, see Using RDS Event Notifications in the HAQM RDS User Guide.
Pricing for CloudWatch Events is available on the HAQM CloudWatch Pricing page.
