The CMDB-360 AWS Automation Satellite provides a way to execute AWS SSM Commands or Automation Documents available in the AWS System Manager on CMDB360 resources.
The CMDB-360 AWS Automation Satellite is one of the available Automation Satellites that can be used with CMDB-360. It provides a way to execute AWS SSM Commands or Automation Documents available in the AWS System Manager on CMDB360 resources. You have access to over 500 AWS provided Runbooks to manage customer AWS cloud resources such as EC2, S3, VPCs and more.
Discovery of these resources is accomplished through the AWS Discovery Satellite, which acts as a companion satellite to the AWS Automation Satellite.
Highlights
The AWS Automation Satellite provides access to over 500 AWS provided Runbooks to manage customer AWS cloud resources such as EC2, S3, VPCs and more.
Point and click directly from the CMDB-360 portal to execute any applicable Runbook without the need to look up AWS resource IDs (they are automatically inherited from the discovered CMDB resource).
Access for the CMDB-360 AWS Automation Satellite to execute SSM Documents is stored in the AWS Secrets Manager. CMDB-360 Vaults are used to control access to these secrets.
AWS Marketplace now accepts line of credit payments through the PNC Vendor Finance program. This program is available to select AWS customers in the US, excluding NV, NC, ND, TN, & VT.
You pay by the hour for the AWS Automation Satellite based on the compute instance size you choose. The four options are all t4g instance types: t4g.medium, t4g.large, t4g.xlarge, and t4g.2xlarge. They differ in the amount of compute and memory each provides, with hourly rates scaling up as instance size increases. All run the same Automation Satellite, which executes AWS Systems Manager runbooks from the CMDB-360 portal. Pick the instance size that matches your workload; you can run any number of automations from a single deployment.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
What do the t4g instance-hour charges actually cover for the AWS Automation Satellite?
You pay for the compute instance that runs the Automation Satellite appliance. This appliance executes AWS Systems Manager Commands and Automation Documents from the CMDB-360 portal. The hourly rate reflects the instance size you pick. Running more automations does not add per-action charges — you pay only for the running instance-hours.
Am I charged when the Automation Satellite instance is stopped or idle?
Charges apply per instance-hour while the instance runs. A fully stopped instance does not accrue software charges. Stopped instances may still incur underlying AWS storage fees for their disk, but the software metering counts running time only. There is no minimum number of automations required to justify the running cost.
How do I choose between the four t4g instance sizes?
Each option runs the same Automation Satellite; they differ in compute and memory. The t4g.medium and t4g.large suit lighter execution loads. The t4g.xlarge and t4g.2xlarge provide more compute for heavier or concurrent runbook execution. You pay a higher hourly rate as instance size increases, so match the size to your workload volume.

An AMI is a virtual image that provides the information required to launch an instance. Amazon EC2 (Elastic Compute Cloud) instances are virtual servers on which you can run your applications and workloads, offering varying combinations of CPU, memory, storage, and networking resources. You can launch as many instances from as many different AMIs as you need.
