With 30% of the global public cloud computing market share, e-Retail giant Amazon.com’s cloud computing branch, Amazon Web Services, is the most dominant cloud service provider on the planet, and as such their services are likely an integral part of many of your IT toolboxes. So how can you manage identity and federate access in your AWS cloud?
