Abstract

With the three biggest being AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud Platform, each service has special interests it caters to, each offer similar services. A major concern with any architecture is security - as cloud resources are heavily reliant on API access, the ability to access resources must be maintained while also making it so users are not given access to resources they do not need. Identity and Access Management makes it so that users can be assigned specific permissions. In this paper, our goal is to define a similar IAM architecture on the three major platforms, AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud.
