AWS -IAM - Identity Access Management - AWS -DAY -2
IAM service is solving the problem of Authentication and Authorization in AWS
- IAM is a Global Service
IAM USER -> When a new user is added, a request will be created to create an IAM user. It's good practice to use an IAM user while practicing.
IAM POLICIES -> Policies need to be attached to the IAM user which gives the Authorization for the particular IAM user to access the services.
-> Users/groups can be assigned JSON Documents call policies(IAM Permissions)
IAM Groups -> Creating a group by attaching all the policies will be helpful to just add the IAM user to the group to get all the Authorized access.
IAM ROLES ->For performing Action on any AWS services like EC2 role, Lamda, role
-> While Creating CI/CD pipeline roles will be used.
