Changes

When you save a config item to Config DB, it tracks its changes. These changes come from external sources like Kubernetes events or Azure activities. Alternatively, Mission Control can automatically detect changes by comparing the old config with the new one.

Changes are of two types:

  • Diff change
  • Event based change

Diff Change​

Config DB generates these changes by comparing the old and new config values. The image below shows a change where the port value was modified from 8080 to 3000.

Kubernetes Deployment Replica change

Event based change​

External sources like Kubernetes Events and AWS CloudTrail provide these changes. Event-based changes have an associated type.
