Why does the "AWS System Manager" collect a list of processes?
Hello. Hello. I noticed something strange while monitoring system events. I need to know why does the "AWS System Manager" collect a list of processes.
Thanks for your help.

It's part of the functionality offered by Fleet Manager. From the doc:
"Using Fleet Manager, you can view information about processes. For example, you can see the CPU utilization and memory usage of processes in addition to their handles and threads. With Fleet Manager, you can start and terminate processes from the console."
If you want to dig into all the functionality of the SSM Agent and what it collects, it's on GitHub here.

Why does the agent collect process information even when I am not using(open) the fleet manager? Isn't the process information fetched from the instance in real time?
