Description |
|
ActionTrail monitors and records Alibaba Cloud account activities. Tablestore is integrated with ActionTrail, allowing you to view events from the last 90 days online without any configuration. You can also deliver account activity records to Simple Log Service or Object Storage Service (OSS) for long-term storage. |
|
|
Simple Log Service is a cloud-native observation and analysis platform. After you activate Simple Log Service and enable audit logging, you can query and analyze logs, view statistical charts, and use LogReduce in the Tablestore console. |
We recommend ActionTrail-based audit logs. Compared with Simple Log Service-based audit logs, ActionTrail-based audit logs cover more operation types and offer more flexible multi-condition query capabilities.
