AWS Certified Solutions Architect - Associate SAA-C03 — Topic 1 Question 185

Question

A company runs an application using Amazon ECS. The application creates resized versions of an original image and then makes Amazon S3 API calls to store the resized images in Amazon S3. How can a solutions architect ensure that the application has permission to access Amazon S3?

Accepted Answer

Correct answer: B. The correct answer is B. Option B: Create an IAM role with S3 permissions, and then specify that role as the taskRoleArn in the task definition. Amazon S3 provides durable, scalable object storage that is fully managed. An IAM role grants temporary, least-privilege permissions to AWS resources without long-term credentials. AWS IAM controls authenticated and authorized access to AWS resources with fine-grained policies.
