AWS IAM Identity Center supports one-click multi-Region option for new organization instances
News
AWS IAM Identity Center now makes it easier to enable multi-Region support when creating a new organization instance with a one-click option.
- Multi-Region instance option automatically creates a customer managed multi-Region KMS key and replicates to an additional Region
- Three configuration options available: single-Region, multi-Region, or custom instance
- Enables resilient access—workforce can access AWS accounts even if primary Region experiences disruption
- Custom instance option allows individual Region configuration and use of existing KMS keys
- Available in 17 enabled-by-default commercial AWS Regions
- Standard AWS KMS charges apply; IAM Identity Center provided at no additional cost
Simplifies multi-Region IAM Identity Center deployment and improves business continuity for workforce access.
