You can create rules that match selected events in the stream and route them to targets to take action. You can also use rules to take action on a pre-determined schedule. For example, you can configure rules to: </p> <ul> <li>Automatically invoke an AWS Lambda function to update DNS entries when an event notifies you that Amazon EC2 instance enters the running state.</li> <li>Direct specific API records from CloudTrail to an Amazon Kinesis stream for detailed analysis of potential security or availability risks.</li> <li>Periodically invoke a built-in target to create a snapshot of an Amazon EBS volume.</li> </ul> <p> For more information about Amazon CloudWatch Events features, see the <a href=\"http://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonCloudWatch/latest/DeveloperGuide\">Amazon CloudWatch Developer Guide</a>. </p>",
