AWS Batch introduces tag-based access control

Posted on: Oct 7, 2020

You can now control access to AWS Batch resources based on tag values. 

AWS Batch enables developers, scientists, and engineers to easily and efficiently run hundreds of thousands of batch computing jobs on AWS. AWS Batch dynamically provisions the optimal quantity and type of compute resources (e.g., CPU or memory optimized instances) based on the volume and specific resource requirements of the batch jobs submitted. With tag-based access control, you can define and control access to AWS Batch resources more easily. For example, you can allow access to certain job queues, or deny access to certain job definitions. 

To get started, you can create or modify AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) policies to control access based on tags. To learn more, see the documentation on tag-based access control. For more information on AWS Batch, please visit this link.
