About this task

When the inventory table is enabled on the volume, you can view access point, inventory table, and table bucket details of existing S3 access points attached to the volume. The system also provides a link to the inventory table in the AWS Management Console.

When the journal table is enabled, Workload Factory generates logs on access points in a table for your reference. The table includes CloudTrail events, trails (a record of AWS activities), CloudTrail filters, CloudWatch log groups, and more.
