# Infrastructure Maps

> Visualize your entire AWS infrastructure across accounts and regions. Interactive maps with zoom, expand, and relationship visualization.

InfraMap provides interactive, visual maps of your entire AWS infrastructure, giving you a bird's eye view of your organization's cloud environment. Navigate seamlessly from high-level organization views down to individual resources, understanding relationships and dependencies at every level.

## Overview

Infrastructure maps visualize your AWS resources as an interactive graph, showing:

* **Resource relationships** - How resources connect and depend on each other
* **Hierarchical organization** - Accounts, regions, VPCs, and resource groups
* **Resource details** - Zoom in to see individual resources and their configurations
* **Multi-dimensional views** - Organize by account, region, service, or custom groupings

<Info>
  Maps are automatically generated and updated based on your infrastructure scans. Changes in your AWS environment are reflected in the maps as scans complete.

## Multi-Account and Multi-Region Views

### Organization-Wide View

Start with a high-level view of your entire AWS organization:

* **All accounts** - See every AWS account connected to InfraMap
* **Account relationships** - Visualize how accounts are organized
* **Cross-account dependencies** - Identify resources that span multiple accounts
* **Aggregate metrics** - Total resources, costs, and security findings across all accounts

### Account-Level View

Zoom into a specific AWS account to see:

* **All regions** - Every AWS region where resources are deployed
* **Regional distribution** - Visual representation of where resources are located
* **Account-specific resources** - All resources within that account
* **Account metrics** - Cost, security, and resource counts for the account

### Region-Level View

Focus on a specific AWS region to explore:

* **VPCs and networking** - All Virtual Private Clouds in the region
* **Regional resources** - Resources deployed in that region
* **Regional relationships** - How resources connect within the region
* **Cross-region connections** - Resources that connect to other regions

## Hierarchical Navigation

InfraMap's maps support hierarchical navigation, allowing you to drill down from high-level views to specific resources.

### Zoom and Expand

Navigate through different levels of detail:

1. **Organization level** - View all accounts
2. **Account level** - Expand to see all regions in an account
3. **Region level** - Expand to see all VPCs and resource groups
4. **VPC level** - Expand to see resources within a VPC
5. **Resource group level** - Expand to see individual resources
6. **Resource level** - View individual resource details and relationships

### Resource Groups

Organize and view resources by:

* **Service type** - Group by EC2, RDS, Lambda, S3, etc.
* **VPC** - Resources within specific Virtual Private Clouds
* **Tags** - Custom groupings based on AWS tags
* **Security groups** - Resources sharing security configurations
* **Application** - Resources belonging to the same application

## Resource Relationships

<img src="https://mintcdn.com/inframap/0TTW5rrA4RXRwAwv/assets/images/map_ec2.jpeg?fit=max&auto=format&n=0TTW5rrA4RXRwAwv&q=85&s=af66d3803aca81a867716eff678b1c85" width="1280" height="928" data-path="assets/images/map_ec2.jpeg" />

One of the most powerful features of infrastructure maps is visualizing relationships between resources.

### Connection Visualization

See how resources connect to each other:

* **Network connections** - Security groups, subnets, and VPC relationships
* **Service dependencies** - Which services depend on which resources
* **Data flows** - How data moves between resources
* **Attachment relationships** - Direct attachments like EBS volumes to EC2 instances

### Example Relationships

**Lambda Functions:**

* See which **API Gateways** are attached to Lambda functions
* View **Event sources** like SQS queues or SNS topics
* Identify **IAM roles** and **VPC configurations** used by functions
* Track **CloudWatch Logs** and **X-Ray traces** associated with functions

**EC2 Instances:**

* See which **EBS volumes** are attached to each instance
* View **Security Groups** and **Network Interfaces**
* Identify **Load Balancers** that route traffic to instances
* Track **Auto Scaling Groups** and **Launch Templates**

**RDS Databases:**

* View **Subnet Groups** and **Security Groups** protecting databases
* See **Read Replicas** and their relationships
* Identify **Parameter Groups** and **Option Groups**
* Track **Backup configurations** and **Snapshots**

**S3 Buckets:**

* See **CloudFront Distributions** using buckets as origins
* View **Lambda functions** triggered by bucket events
* Identify **IAM policies** and **Bucket Policies** controlling access
* Track **Versioning** and **Replication** configurations

### Interactive Exploration

* **Click to expand** - Click on any resource or group to see its relationships
* **Hover for details** - Hover over resources to see quick information
* **Filter by relationship** - Show only resources connected to a specific resource
* **Follow connections** - Navigate along relationship paths
* **Highlight dependencies** - Highlight all resources that depend on a selected resource

## Use Cases

### Infrastructure Discovery

* **Understand your infrastructure** - Get a complete picture of your AWS environment
* **Find orphaned resources** - Identify resources that aren't connected to anything
* **Discover dependencies** - Understand what depends on critical resources
* **Document architecture** - Use maps as documentation for your infrastructure

### Troubleshooting

* **Trace connections** - Follow relationships to find the source of issues
* **Identify bottlenecks** - See where resources are concentrated
* **Find misconfigurations** - Spot resources with unusual connection patterns
* **Understand impact** - See what would be affected by changes

### Cost Optimization

* **Identify expensive regions** - See where costs are concentrated
* **Find unused resources** - Spot resources with no connections
* **Optimize data transfer** - See cross-region and cross-account data flows
* **Right-size resources** - Understand resource relationships before resizing

### Security Analysis

* **Review network security** - See security group relationships
* **Identify exposed resources** - Find resources with public access
* **Track IAM usage** - See which resources use which IAM roles
* **Audit configurations** - Verify security settings across resources
