​@@TinyTechnicalTutorials on a related note, I humbly ask for help. I need to learn Hadoop, Spark, Hive, Impala etc etc. The courses I found use Hadoop 2.6 or 2.7 - that's six years ago. The examples no longer work. I'm desperately looking for admin & devel courses that use 3.6.x. Any directions?

Oh hello!! 👋 I'm so glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching!! 🙏🤓🌟

[@ultrasys]

Helpful? Damn... it was perfect. I already knew how to create users, roles, groups, and policies but whenever I needed to go through it I stumbled and fell hard, had to get up and keep going. Now every single piece of it just makes perfect sense. I even suggested your channel to a British friend of mine just to poke him like: see? how a good American accent does it much better? hahaha. Jokes apart, a side effect to this video was it had me thinking about how important if is to clearly communicate, even/especially for a technically prepared audience; and that, made me think how hard it is to have well prepared team members, ones that truly know the product or service, that are up to the task. Then, I realized that, due to the current dynamic nature of professional relations between workers and companies, that is getting harder and harder to achieve and... maintain. IOW, small companies like mine are probably doomed in this area: training. Things that make you go hmmm....

I grasp the basic setup of the user pool, but could you delve into how to determine which users should have specific access levels using the identity pool? I'd appreciate it if you could explain how the user pool and identity pool collaborate for Role-Based Access Control (RBAC). Additionally, correct me if I'm mistaken, but even if RBAC is feasible with the identity pool, there seems to be a lack of reliable sources on this topic. @@TinyTechnicalTutorials

Hey Amber, when I search "IAM" from the AWS Console, 2 matching items show up - IAM and IAM Identity Center. I notice both have options to add new user/group, but IC does not seem to have options to create roles/policies. I reckon IC is probably a new implementation since this tutorial was recorded. What is their difference, and would you recommend creating users/groups in IC now?

[@TinyTechnicalTutorials]

Hi Kat! 👋 Yes, Amazon is nudging people towards Identity Center these days. Here's a video about the basics: kzbin.info/www/bejne/naHUpoyjmNWNptE.

[@KatRollo]

@@TinyTechnicalTutorials Thank you! I followed the tutorial here for starters to create an admin IAM instead of using root for best practices you mentioned. I also made sure Dwight was happy. 😂 I'll have a look at the IAM IC tutorials next. 😊

[@TinyTechnicalTutorials]

LOL! I'm sure Dwight appreciates that! 😂

[@DirtySouth33T]

thank you for sharing, i understand what you went over very much appreciated. however when i am going to create users now I am getting below message. i know its optional but they say its best practices. I just need to add another admin and i think its overkill but is this what you recommend now as well? Thanks again Provide user access to the AWS Management Console - optional If you're providing console access to a person, it's a best practice to manage their access in IAM Identity Center.

[@TinyTechnicalTutorials]

Hey Adam! Thanks for watching and for the nice comment! 😊 Yes, they've changed the UI a little bit since I created this video. I haven't had a chance to create an update. AWS is recommending using Identity Center if you need to give someone console access, but you don't HAVE to. Here are some screenshots to walk you through an alternate flow to do it the "old-fashioned" way: drive.google.com/file/d/1dIex_pGCfNKGF5JjNPiMVih38OKl5qsw/view?usp=sharing. Hope that helps!

[@joebazooks]

how do you grant programmatic access in the new/current dashboard? things seemed to have changed a bit since you made this video

[@joebazooks]

figured out thats what "access keys" are for supposedly. still would be nice if you updated this particular video because theres also now an explicit suggestion that says identity centre should be used to grant access to the console (except in limited circumstances?)

[@TinyTechnicalTutorials]

Hey GG! 😊 Sorry for the delayed response. This is good for beginners, but won't teach you enough to get a job doing PAM/IAM. You'll probably want a dedicated course, and ideally with some hands-on exercises. I just did a quick search on Udemy and found a few things (haven't validated any of them though): www.udemy.com/courses/search/?src=ukw&q=iam+pam. For AWS specifically, they have a Security specialty certification: aws.amazon.com/certification/certified-security-specialty/.

Hello, what are the certifications and steps for a beginner venturing to become an identity access management analyst? thank you

[@TinyTechnicalTutorials]

Hi BillsReviews! 😊 For any role with AWS, it's good to get the AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner certification as a baseline. This covers core concepts and services (compute, networking, storage, etc.). (Shameless plug: I do have a prep course for that if you're interested...use code FRIENDS10 for 10% off: academy.zerotomastery.io/a/aff_n20ghyn4/external?affcode=441520_lm7gzk-d ). There's not a specific certification for IAM, but the Certified Security Specialty would be a good idea (it covers security more broadly): aws.amazon.com/certification/certified-security-specialty.

I got everything except that what is about "temporary" assumption of roles. If we create a role with some permissions and policies and attach that role to a resource, how come it is providing the temporary access since that that role is technically permanently attached to the resource (of course until we remove it)?

Hi Prerak! 😊 Maybe this will help? docs.aws.amazon.com/IAM/latest/UserGuide/id_credentials_temp.html

I got a lot from your explanation. Thank you for taking the time to put this together. So if understand correctly: Roles can be assigned *only* to resources like EC2 instances and groups can be assigned to *only* users? Also, in a hypothetical scenario, would a user with permissions to *only* view/create EC2 instances be able to create an EC2 instance, but assign that a role that has admin permissions, thereby allowing the user to indirectly bypass their permission constraints? Or does AWS protect against such scenarios?

Thanks for the kind words, @adiadiadi! 😊 I'm glad it helped. To answer your questions: -Roles can be assigned to users or AWS services (like EC2). Here's more detail if you need it: docs.aws.amazon.com/IAM/latest/UserGuide/id_roles_terms-and-concepts.html -User groups can only contain users -For the hypothetical scenario, the user would need permissions to create roles, which isn't something they'd have by default (but admins do). The permission is called "attach-role-policy." In general, the recommendation is that you DON'T grant attach-role-policy permissions to anyone except admins, so that would be one way to prevent this. But here's a bit more about creating service roles that might be insightful: docs.aws.amazon.com/IAM/latest/UserGuide/id_roles_create_for-service.html Hope that helps! Thanks for watching! 🤓🌟🙏

so we can't use any of the AWS services without IAM and also other can't access our application hosted on ec2 without IAM is'nt?
