It can be very easy to confuse the two services; especially when you are under pressure in the certification exams.

The aim of the article is therefore to eliminate the confusion between the two services. After reading the article, it should be clear what each service does and what is the difference between them.

Without further ado, let’s jump straight in!

AWS CloudWatch

AWS CloudWatch is a monitoring service. That means it allows you to monitor the performance of your AWS resources and applications.

AWS CloudTrail

Consider AWS CloudTrail as a detective that watches over your AWS account and environment. It shows you:

• what action was taken
• who did it
• when the action was taken
• where the action was taken
