Discovery and Service Mapping Patterns finds AWS Regions for your AWS account on your cloud environment. Discovering some of these resources may require updating to the latest version of the Discovery and Service Mapping Patterns application from the ServiceNow Store.

## Pattern-based discovery and mapping requirements {#aws-datacenter-pattern__section_rpj_fj2_bgc}

Verify the AWS discovery prerequisites section in [Amazon AWS Cloud components discovery using patterns](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/nnBwzYmMo_kpTZpG3y5~xQ "Discovery and Service Mapping Patterns uses patterns to discover components of the Amazon AWS Cloud deployment during horizontal discovery. Discovering some of these resources may require updating to the latest version of the Discovery and Service Mapping Patterns application from the ServiceNow Store.").

## Data collected by Discovery during horizontal discovery {#aws-datacenter-pattern__section_ggp_ql2_bgc}

Discovery populates the data in the CMDB when running the Amazon AWS Datacenter discovery pattern.
