us-east-1 went down. Problem is that IAM services all run through that DC. Any code relying on an IAM role would not be able to authenticate. Think of it as a username in a Windows domain. IAM encompasses all that you are allowed to view, change, launch, etc.
I didn’t hardly touch AWS at my last job, but listening to my teammates and seeing their code led me to believe IAM is used everywhere.
Nothing to do with moving data. But you can’t move data without authentication.
I want my service to do a $thing. It won’t do $thing without knowing who I am and what permissions I have. The data doesn’t have to cross borders, the service simply needs to function.
Does that make sense? As I said, didn’t do much in AWS, but the principles are sound.

How is that even legal, I thought there were data export laws in the eu
