AWS CloudHSM is a fully managed service, so you need not worry about scalability, high availability, hardware provisioning, or software patching. These tasks are taken care by of AWS. The AWS also takes automated encrypted backups of your HSM on a daily basis.

AWS monitors health and network availability of HSMs. It does not have access to keys stored inside these HSMs. This access is available only to you and users authorized by you. You are responsible for keys and cryptography operations. This separation of duties and role-based access control is inherent to CloudHSM design, as shown in the following figure:
