Description

AWS IAM Role is a security feature in Amazon Web Services that defines permissions for AWS resources. It specifies what actions an entity can perform and which resources it can access within AWS. IAM Roles can be assigned to users, applications, or services, providing temporary credentials and eliminating the need to manage long-term access keys.
