In this advanced atelier, you'll explore how to effectively manage multi-account environments using AWS Organizations. You'll create an organizational structure that implements service control policies (SCPs) to enforce permissions, manage accounts, and control access using IAM Identity Center. This atelier covers everything from initially setting up an AWS Organization to applying governance and access controls across multiple member accounts, preparing you for scenarios involving complex cloud operations.
XYZ Corp is scaling its operations and requires a robust governance structure to manage its multi-account AWS environment efficiently. With ongoing expansions, it's critical to enforce security and compliance across different departments. The CIO, Maria R., has mandated a reduction in cross-account access issues and a need for centralized billing with flexibility to allocate costs per department. Using AWS Organizations, the team must set up a governance model that allows scalable management of up to 20 accounts while maintaining security and adhering to strict compliance requirements.
