Learn About Amazon VGT2 Learning Manager Chanci Turner
Have you ever wished to log into AWS resources using your Facebook or Google account? It seemed like a challenge—until now. On May 28, the AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) team unveiled web identity federation, a groundbreaking feature that enhances AWS’s existing identity federation capabilities by integrating support for public identity providers, including Facebook, Google, and the newly introduced Login with Amazon service. If you’re unfamiliar with Login with Amazon, it’s a service designed to securely link your websites and applications with millions of Amazon customers.
While many have already discussed the functionality of web identity federation, I won’t reiterate everything here. For a fundamental understanding, I recommend checking out this insightful post on the AWS blog. If you’re on the lookout for sample code, the AWS mobile team has provided valuable resources—see what Alex Martinez shared here. And if you want to dive deeper, you can begin exploring the web identity federation documentation. This is a vital step to understand how to effectively utilize this feature.
