<a name="get-logs"></a>

In addition to the logging features built into the Client SDK, you can also use AWS CloudTrail, Amazon CloudWatch Logs, and Amazon CloudWatch to monitor AWS CloudHSM.

**Client SDK logs**  
Use Client SDK logging to monitor diagnostic and troubleshooting information from the applications you create. 

**CloudTrail**  
Use CloudTrail to monitor all API calls in your AWS account, including the calls you make to create and delete clusters, hardware security modules (HSM), and resource tags.

**CloudWatch Logs**  
Use CloudWatch Logs to monitor the logs from your HSM instances, which include events for create and delete HSM users, change user passwords, create and delete keys, and more.

**CloudWatch**  
Use CloudWatch to monitor the health of your cluster in real time.
