Life cycle management in the Service Graph Connector for AWS monitors and updates the statuses of AWS resources throughout their entire life cycle, from creation to deletion.

The life cycle management process helps maintain the accuracy and integrity of data in the Configuration Management Database (CMDB).

In life cycle management, the record removal process involves systematically deleting obsolete or unnecessary resources. This step ensures that outdated entries are cleared, keeping the CMDB accurate and up-to-date. See Record removal process in Service Graph Connector for AWS.
