Introducing AWS Resource Access Manager

Posted on: Dec 6, 2018

AWS Resource Access Manager (RAM) provides customers a simple way to share their resources across AWS accounts or within their AWS Organization. Many AWS customers use multiple AWS accounts to provide administrative and billing autonomy to their teams. These customers can now centrally create resources and use RAM to share them across accounts, leading to a reduction in operational overhead for customers while maintaining the benefits of a multi-account strategy. Using RAM to share resources eliminates the need for customers to create duplicate resources in each of their accounts and drives down costs. Consumption of shared resources is governed by access control policies in AWS Identity & Access Management and Service Control Policies in AWS Organizations, enabling customers to leverage their existing investments in security and governance controls. At this time, customers can share Amazon Route 53 Resolver Rules, AWS Transit Gateways, Subnets, and AWS License Manager Configurations using RAM.

AWS Resource Access Manager is available to customers at no additional charge and is offered in US East (N. Virginia), US East (Ohio), US West (N. California), US West (Oregon), Asia Pacific (Mumbai), Asia Pacific (Seoul), Asia Pacific (Singapore), Asia Pacific (Sydney), Asia Pacific (Tokyo), Canada (Central), EU (Frankfurt), EU (Ireland), EU (London), and EU (Paris) regions.
