Resource Access Control (IAM Permission Control)

If you want to give varying levels of access to your company's DWS resources on Huawei Cloud, using IAM is an effective way to manage permissions in detail. IAM provides identity authentication, permissions management, and access control, helping you securely manage access to your Huawei Cloud resources. With IAM, you can use your Huawei Cloud account to create IAM users, and assign permissions to the users to control their access to specific resources.

  • Scenario 1: To allow software developers in your company to use DWS resources while restricting high-risk operations and resource deletion, you can create IAM users tailored for these developers and grant them only the essential permissions for DWS usage.
  • Scenario 2: Allow employees to use only DWS resources, but not the resources of other services. To this end, grant them only the permissions for DWS.

You can use IAM to control cloud resource access and prevents misoperations on cloud resources. For details, see Creating a User and Granting DWS Permissions.
