How to protect sensitive data for its entire lifecycle in AWS
Fall 2020 PCI DSS report now available with eight additional services in scope
I made a thing. Assume AWS IAM roles from GitHub Actions. Now I can use the best CI solution with the best cloud and not have to create IAM users.
The role sessions are even tagged with repo, SHA, run numbers, etc for much saner CloudTrail trawling.

So last night I passed the AWS Machine Learning - Specialty exam 😃
That was a tough one! 😅
For anyone interested in AI/ML I would encourage you to study for it 📚 I learnt a ton and liked how a large % of the exam was focused on general ML knowledge vs the AWS services.

"When seconds matter, CloudTrail takes minutes"
CloudTrail could be a database too. I would think that the ~20 minute delay between "thing happens" and "it shows up in the logs" would be a blocker, but people still use Bitcoin so...
