Collecting Data from Your Public Cloud

You can collect and analyze data from your public cloud environments. You can configure a connection from Densify to your cloud-hosted environments through the cloud connection wizard or through the Densify API.

Review the connection prerequisites to configure a user account that can then be used to create a connection to Densify:

• AWS Data Collection Using a CloudFormation Template. Densify recommends using the CloudFormation template as it automates the entire process.
• AWS Data Collection Prerequisites for an IAM Role (CloudWatch only).
• Microsoft Azure Data Collection Prerequisites for a Service Principal
• Google Cloud Platform Data Collection Prerequisites

Once your data has been analyzed, you can see your results in Optimizing Your Public Cloud on page 1.
