# IVS Recording Configuration

IVS Recording Configuration in AWS defines how Amazon Interactive Video Service (IVS) records live streams. It specifies settings such as the destination storage location in Amazon S3, thumbnail generation options, and recording behavior. This configuration allows you to control how live video content is captured, stored, and made available for playback or further processing.
