IAM Authentication

IAM Authentication

Optional. You can configure Amazon Identity and Access Management (IAM) authentication when the PowerCenter Integration Service runs on an Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) system. Use IAM authentication for secure and controlled access to Amazon Redshift resources when you run a session.
Use IAM authentication when you want to run a a session on an EC2 system. Perform the following steps to configure IAM authentication:
  1. Create a minimal Amazon IAM policy. For more information, see Create a minimal Amazon IAM policy.
  2. Create the Amazon EC2 role. Associate the minimal Amazon IAM policy while creating the EC2 role. The Amazon EC2 role is used when you create an EC2 system in the Redshift cluster. For more information about creating the Amazon EC2 role, see the AWS documentation.
  3. Create an EC2 instance. Assign the Amazon EC2 role that you created in step #2 to the EC2 instance.
  4. Create the Amazon Redshift Role ARN for secure access to Amazon Redshift resources. Associate the minimal Amazon IAM policy while creating the Amazon Redshift role. You can use the Amazon Redshift Role ARN in the UNLOAD and COPY commands. For more information about creating the Amazon Redshift Role ARN, see the AWS documentation.
  5. Add the Amazon Redshift Role ARN to the Amazon Redshift cluster to successfully perform the read and write operations. For more information about adding the Amazon Redshift Role ARN to the Amazon Redshift cluster, see the AWS documentation.
  6. Install the the PowerCenter Integration Service on the EC2 system.
