ssm_create_resource_data_sync: A resource data sync helps you view data from multiple sources in a single location

Description

A resource data sync helps you view data from multiple sources in a single location. Systems Manager offers two types of resource data sync: SyncToDestination and SyncFromSource.

Usage

ssm_create_resource_data_sync(SyncName, S3Destination, SyncType,
  SyncSource)

Arguments

SyncName

[required] A name for the configuration.

S3Destination

Amazon S3 configuration details for the sync. This parameter is required if the SyncType value is SyncToDestination.

SyncType

Specify SyncToDestination to create a resource data sync that synchronizes data to an S3 bucket for Inventory. If you specify SyncToDestination, you must provide a value for S3Destination. Specify SyncFromSource to synchronize data from a single account and multiple Regions, or multiple AWS accounts and Regions, as listed in AWS Organizations for Explorer. If you specify SyncFromSource, you must provide a value for SyncSource. The default value is SyncToDestination.

SyncSource

Specify information about the data sources to synchronize. This parameter is required if the SyncType value is SyncFromSource.

Details

You can configure Systems Manager Inventory to use the SyncToDestination type to synchronize Inventory data from multiple AWS Regions to a single S3 bucket. For more information, see Configuring Resource Data Sync for Inventory in the AWS Systems Manager User Guide.

You can configure Systems Manager Explorer to use the SyncFromSource type to synchronize operational work items (OpsItems) and operational data (OpsData) from multiple AWS Regions to a single S3 bucket. This type can synchronize OpsItems and OpsData from multiple AWS accounts and Regions or EntireOrganization by using AWS Organizations. For more information, see Setting up Systems Manager Explorer to display data from multiple accounts and Regions in the AWS Systems Manager User Guide.

A resource data sync is an asynchronous operation that returns immediately. After a successful initial sync is completed, the system continuously syncs data. To check the status of a sync, use the ListResourceDataSync.

By default, data is not encrypted in Amazon S3. We strongly recommend that you enable encryption in Amazon S3 to ensure secure data storage. We also recommend that you secure access to the Amazon S3 bucket by creating a restrictive bucket policy.
