How can I enable audit logging for an Amazon RDS for MySQL cluster and publish the logs to CloudWatch?

0

There is a documentation on how to enable audit logging for an RDS instance as well as a documentation on how to enable it for an Amazon Aurora MySQL-Compatible DB cluster. However, I can't seem to find any documentation to enable audit logging for an RDS MySQL cluster.

Hello.

For RDS for MySQL, audit logging is enabled by creating a custom option group and turning on "SERVER_AUDIT_LOGGING" in "MARIADB_AUDIT_PLUGIN".

  • There is no option to attach a custom group to an RDS cluster (I can only attach a custom group to an RDS instance and not to a cluster): Enter image description here
