CTS Update: Key event notification

Domain administrator scan configure the key event notification function on Cloud Trace Service (CTS). When a specified operation is performed, a notification is sent to specified users through the Simple Message Notification (SMN) service. This function is used in the following scenarios:

• Real-time perception and confirmation of high-risk operations (such as Elastic Cloud Server restarts and security configuration changes), cost-sensitive operations (such as creating and deleting high-cost resources), and service-sensitive operations (such as network configuration changes).
• Perception and confirmation of unauthorized operations such as login of a user with high level permissions or operations of a user without required permissions.
• Interconnecting with your own audit system: All audit logs are synchronized to your audit system in real time to analyse the interface invoking success rate, unauthorised operations, security, and costs.
  
  

• Key event notifications are sent to the Simple Message Notification (SMN) service.
• The user is then able to customise said service and select which operations to track.
• The user is able to configure key event notifications for a maximum of 50 users in 10 user groups. For each notification it is possible to select multiple users within a user group.
  
  

• No API changes.
• No changes to the CTS pricing model. CTS will send the notification through SMN. The pricing of SMN also remains unchanged.
