Does Ambari supports any kind of change management ?

[#1]

Is there any possibility to track configuration changes in Ambari?

@Robert Mroczkowski

Yes, we can see all the changes for each service in ambari, even we can compare changes and if required we can role back the changes related to configuration.

We can see who had made what changes also through ambari.

@Robert Mroczkowski the only change management which is available is config change management as pointed out by @Sri Bandaru A limited change management with respect to services / components can be achieved by manually backing up Ambari db before doing any changes,

Also note, config changes are logged to:

/var/log/ambari-server/ambari-config-changes.log
