Amazon Web Services

I am an experienced member of Jeff's Cloud Nativity, having gained battle hardered experience using AWS roles at Capgemini, Torchbox, Cookpad and Adarga. I use Terraform, Terragrunt, and my mouse and keyboard to maintain my AWS Cloud.

AWS CLI

# Visit: https://aws.amazon.com/cli/
#
cd ~/Downloads
curl "https://awscli.amazonaws.com/awscli-exe-linux-$(uname -m).zip" -o "awscliv2.zip"
unzip awscliv2.zip
sudo ./aws/install
rm -vf ~/Downloads/awscliv2.zip ./aws

1password CLI support

AWS credentials are stored in 1Password, and I can make use of the CLI integration, but only when the fingerprint reader works.

op plugin init aws

AWS Organisation and Accounts

The root account has been secured with a really long password and MFA, and access credentials created for bootstrap have been revoked.
