Correct answer: Use the AWS Config managed rule required-tags to evaluate DynamoDB tables for the required tags, and configure an automatic remediation action that runs an AWS Systems Manager Automation custom runbook..
Why this is the answer
The correct solution leverages AWS Config's required-tags managed rule, which automatically evaluates resources for tag compliance. This is low-maintenance because AWS manages the rule's logic. Configuring an automatic remediation action with AWS Systems Manager Automation further reduces operational work by automatically applying missing tags without manual intervention. Custom Lambda functions, whether scheduled by EventBridge or triggered by a custom Config rule, require writing and maintaining code, increasing operational overhead. EventBridge managed rules are for event-driven actions, not for continuous compliance evaluation of resource configurations like AWS Config.
