AWS CloudFormation StackSets Supports Multiple Execution Roles and Selective Update Operation on Stack Instances

Posted on: May 30, 2018

AWS CloudFormation StackSets now allows you to create multiple execution roles in target accounts. This allows you to control resource types users can create or update in their stack sets. For example, you can restrict a group to create or update only Amazon S3 related resources in StackSets, while another group can only access Amazon DynamoDB resources.  

You can now also use new optional parameters Accounts and Regions in the UpdateStackSet API to update only specific stack instances instead of updating all the instances in a stack set while performing update operations on the stack set.
