# Reports, metrics, and logs
<a name="reports-and-monitoring"></a>

CloudFront provides several options for reporting, monitoring, and logging your CloudFront resources. You can complete the following tasks:
+ View and download reports to see usage and activity for your CloudFront distributions, including billing reports, cache statistics, popular content, and top referrers.
+ Monitor and track CloudFront, including your [edge computing functions](http://www.amazonaws.cn/cloudfront/features/#Edge_Computing), directly in the CloudFront console or by using Amazon CloudWatch. CloudFront sends metrics to CloudWatch for distributions and edge functions, both Lambda@Edge and CloudFront Functions.
+ View logs for the viewer requests that your CloudFront distributions receive with standard logs or real-time access logs. In addition to viewer request logs, you can use CloudWatch Logs to get logs for your edge functions, both Lambda@Edge and CloudFront Functions. You can also use Amazon CloudTrail to get logs of the CloudFront API activity in your Amazon Web Services account.
+ Track configuration changes to your CloudFront resources using Amazon Config.

For more information about these options, see the following topics.
