Leveraging AWS CloudTrail Insights for Proactive API Monitoring and Cost Optimization

AWS CloudTrail Insights is a powerful feature within AWS CloudTrail that helps organizations identify and respond to unusual operational activity in their AWS accounts. This includes identifying spikes in resource provisioning, bursts of IAM actions, or gaps in periodic maintenance activity. CloudTrail Insights continuously analyzes CloudTrail management events from trails and event data stores, establishing a baseline of normal API call volume and error rate patterns.
