It guides customers on prerequisites, configuration steps, and the data populated in ServiceNow tables during the discovery process. Show full answer Show less ## Key Features * **Pattern-based discovery:** Uses a specific pattern (Amazon AWS - Managed Workflows for Apache Airflow Environment - Extended Inventory) to identify and collect details about MWAA environments. * **Prerequisites:** Customers must verify AWS discovery requirements, update the Discovery and Service Mapping Patterns application to the latest version, and ensure the relevant pattern is enabled (disabled by default). * **Resource Inclusion List management:** To avoid duplicate discovery, resources should not be listed in the Resource Inclusion List table. * **AWS GovCloud support:** Discovery for AWS GovCloud accounts requires configuring AWS service accounts with datacenter URLs accordingly. * **Data population:** Discovered MWAA environment data is stored in both CMDB and non-CMDB tables, providing comprehensive configuration and inventory information. * **Tag collection:** AWS tags associated with MWAA resources are captured and stored in the Key Value \[cmdbkeyvalue\] table for enhanced metadata management. ## Data and Relationships Captured * **Non-CMDB table \[cmdbawsmanagedworkflowsforapacheairflowenvironment\]:** Stores detailed MWAA environment attributes such as name, Airflow version, ARN, and references to Cloud App Server records. * **CMDB table \[cmdbcicloudappserver\]:** Stores core configuration items related to MWAA environments including name, install status (default Installed), operational status (default Operational), resource type (AWS::MWAA::Environment), and ARN. * **CI relationships:** The pattern creates relationships linking MWAA environment records to AWS Datacenters (hosts) and Cloud App Server CIs, enabling clear infrastructure mapping. ## Practical Benefits for ServiceNow Customers By leveraging this pattern-based discovery, customers can automate the identification and mapping of their Amazon MWAA environments, ensuring accurate and up-to-date CMDB data. This enhances visibility into cloud workflows, supports operational status tracking, and facilitates governance through tag management. The integration with ServiceNow's CMDB and extended inventory tables allows for better cloud resource management and supports service impact analysis. Discovery and Service Mapping Patterns finds AWS services on your cloud environment. Discovering some of these resources might require updating to the latest version of the Discovery and Service Mapping Patterns application from the ServiceNow Store. ## Pattern-based discovery and mapping requirements {#aws-mwaa-environment__selection_ipy_53n_jfc} Verify the AWS discovery prerequisites : For more information, see the prerequisites section in [AWS discovery using patterns](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/NFaTlkGaSxMWb2bQPsCnCA "Discovery and Service Mapping Patterns uses patterns to discover components of the Amazon AWS Cloud deployment during horizontal discovery. Discovering some of these resources might require updating to the latest version of the Discovery and Service Mapping Patterns application from the ServiceNow Store."). Remove resources from the Resource Inclusion List table : Verify that the relevant resource isn't listed in the Resource Inclusion List \[sa_cloud_inventory_resource_whitelist\] table to avoid duplicate discovery. For more information on removing resources from the Resource Inclusion List, see [AWS Resource Inventory discovery with Patterns](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/0pDNq0441mpy~sExfQvvqA "The ServiceNow Discovery and Service Mapping applications can find and map the AWS resources available by AWS Config Service. Discovering some of these resources might require updating to the latest version of the Discovery and Service Mapping Patterns application from the ServiceNow Store."). Enable the relevant pattern : The pattern for this service is disabled by default. Starting with Visibility Content version 6.28.0, activating or deactivating a pattern won't be considered a customization, and it will continue to receive updates. Patterns that were previously activated or deactivated will reset to the latest predefined version after upgrading while retaining the last active field value. For more information on enabling patterns, see [Activate a disabled pattern](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/aypCYVQdO8oFebLMLEI89g "If you want to use a pattern for discovery that's disabled by default, activate it manually.").{#aws-mwaa-environment__activating-disabled-pattern-not-customization} Configure the Discovery schedule to support GovCloud : Discovering AWS GovCloud (US) accounts requires using a datacenter URL when setting up an AWS service account. For more information, see [Create AWS service accounts](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/vpueuFRHMWLNi6dzsJv94A "Create AWS service accounts on the ServiceNow AI Platform to access your AWS account during AWS discovery."). Discovery and Service Mapping Patterns application populates data in both CMDB and non-CMDB tables. ## Data stored in non-CMDB tables {#aws-mwaa-environment__section_aq4_qkq_hfc} Discovery and Service Mapping Patterns application populates data in the non-CMDB table when running the Amazon AWS - Managed Workflows for Apache Airflow Environment - Extended Inventory (LP) pattern. You can review the non-CMDB AWS tables by navigating to AllConfigurationAWS. You can also search the navigation filter for the specific pattern name. {#aws-mwaa-environment__section_aq4_qkq_hfc__entry__2} | Field | Description | |-|-| | Name \[name\] | The display name or identifier for the Airflow environment. | | Airflow Version \[airflow_version\] | The specific version of Apache Airflow running in the environment. | | Configuration Item \[configuration_item\] | References the Cloud App Server \[cmdb_ci_cloud_appserver\] table. | | Object Id \[object_id\] | The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) uniquely identifying the Airflow environment. | [Table 1.
