AWS Resource Access Manager

AWS Resource Access Manager Cheat Sheet

A service that enables you to easily and securely share AWS resources with any AWS account or, if you are part of AWS Organizations, with Organizational Units (OUs) or your entire Organization. If you share resources with accounts that are outside of your Organization, then those accounts will receive an invitation to the Resource Share and can start using the shared resources upon accepting the invitation.
- Only the master account can enable sharing with AWS Organizations.
- The organization must be enabled for all features.
RAM eliminates the need to create duplicate resources in multiple accounts. You can create resources centrally in a multi-account environment, and use RAM to share those resources across accounts in three simple steps:

1. Create a Resource Share
2. Specify resources
3. Specify accounts

You can stop sharing a resource by deleting the share in AWS RAM.
Services you can share with AWS RAM

Amazon EC2	Capacity Reservations, Dedicated Hosts, Subnets, Traffic mirror targets, Transit gateways
Amazon EC2 Image Builder	Components, Images (AMI), Image recipes

Security

- Use IAM policies to secure who can access resources that you shared or received from another account.

What our students say about us?

I’m deeply impressed by the quality of the practice tests from Tutorial Dojo. They are extremely well-written, clean and on-par with the real exam questions. Their practice tests and cheat sheets were a huge help for me to achieve 958 / 1000 — 95.8 % on my first try for the AWS Certified Solution Architect Associate exam. Perfect 10/10 material. The best $14 I’ve ever spent!

Given the enormous number of students and therefore the business success of Jon's courses, I was pleasantly surprised to see that Jon personally responds to many, including often the more technical questions from his students within the forums, showing that when Jon states that teaching is his true passion, he walks, not just talks the talk. I much respect and thank Jon Bonso.

The explanation to the questions are awesome. Lots of gap exposed in my learning. I used the practice tests along with the TD cheat sheets as my main study materials. This is a must training resource for the exam.

Using the practice exam helped me to pass. I think I wouldn't have passed if not for Jon's practice sets.

I can say that Tutorials Dojo is a leading and prime resource when it comes to the AWS Certification Practice Tests. I also tried other courses but only Tutorials Dojo was able to give me enough knowledge of Amazon Web Services. My favorite part of this course is explaining the correct and wrong answers as it provides a deep understanding in AWS Cloud Platform. The course I purchased at Tutorials Dojo has been a weapon for me to pass the AWS Certified Solutions Architect - Associate exam and to compete in Cloud World. A Big thank you to Team Tutorials Dojo and Jon Bonso for providing the best practice test around the globe!!!

I highly recommend Jon and Tutorials Dojo!!!
