## Connection and credential alias requirements {#amazon-cloudwatch__section_kkm_jr4_qmb}

Integration Hub uses aliases to manage connection
and credential information. Using an alias eliminates the need to configure multiple
credentials and connection information profiles when using multiple environments. If the
connection or credential information changes, you don't need to update any actions that
use the connection. For more information, see [Connections and Credentials](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=r-credentials&version=zurich&pubname=zurich-platform-security&ft:locale=en-US).
