Section 5 - Introduction

“

Welcome to another section. In this section I'm going to cover AWS Organizations and AWS Control Tower. Now Organizations has been around for quite a few years and it gives you some capabilities around consolidated billing but also and very critically to this course security. So with Organizations you can have multiple AWS accounts that are within an organizational structure and then you can apply certain security controls like service control policies which limit the API actions that are available. Control Tower provides another level of control and governance for your AWS accounts and it gives you some predefined service control policies that are known as guardrails. There's going to be hands-on exercises where you're going to use organizations and Control Tower to actually create accounts and we're going to look at how we can switch roles and gain access cross-account using the account structures we create.
