Cost Allocation Tags on Amazon S3 Buckets and Using AWS Cost Explorer

2023-05-27T12:51:02+00:00

Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3) is one of the most popular cloud-based storage solutions by AWS. Amazon S3 offers flexibility for various applications and is widely used across multiple use cases as it offers durability, availability, and cost-effectiveness. It allows users to store, manage, and securely access petabyte-scale data from the AWS cloud.   By default, Amazon Billing shows how much data and cost is incurred for the cumulative storage cost and usage of all S3 buckets in each region. Because it is very easy to create multiple S3 buckets and upload objects to them, customers such as startups, small [...]

Enhancing S3 Bucket Security by Prohibiting Uploads of Unencrypted Objects

2023-05-22T01:34:06+00:00

Amazon S3 is a widely used object storage service that allows users to store and retrieve large amounts of data. S3 is known for its scalability, durability, and cost-effectiveness, making it an ideal choice for many organizations. However, as with any cloud-based service, security is a crucial concern. One way to enhance the security of S3 buckets is by prohibiting the upload of unencrypted objects. In this article, we will explore why this is important and how it can be implemented. Why Prohibit Uploads of Unencrypted Objects? Unencrypted objects in S3 buckets can be vulnerable to data breaches, which can [...]

Connecting your Lambda Function to a Private Database

2023-05-15T02:11:53+00:00

If you want your Lambda function to interact with resources (e.g., RDS database, EC2 instance) inside a private subnet, you won't be able to do so by default. The reason for this is that Lambda functions live in an isolated and secured VPC managed by AWS. This is why when you create a Lambda function, you don’t go through any networking configurations (VPC, subnet, ENIs), unlike when creating EC2 instances. Also, you cannot establish a VPC peering connection between the VPC where Lambda functions are run and the VPC where your private resources are located because the former is not [...]

Understanding the IAM:PassRole Permission

2023-08-24T02:44:43+00:00

Introduction Many AWS services often require the use of an IAM role to execute actions on your behalf. For example, when you create a Lambda function, you assign an execution role to it. AWS can generate one for you automatically, and then you define the permissions you want it to have after. Most of the time, that's the case. However, there are instances when you might choose to associate an existing IAM role. In practice, we often concentrate on which permissions a user is allowed to perform and which are off-limits. But what's often overlooked are the IAM roles a [...]
