What is IAM Users and Groups?
First, let's understand what IAM is in AWS. IAM stands for Identity and Access Management, and it is a service in AWS that lets us control who can access what kind of resources in our AWS account.
Now that we know what IAM is, let's talk about Users and Groups.
An IAM User is an identity you create for a person or application that needs to interact with your AWS account. Each user gets their own credentials, so you know exactly who did what.
An IAM Group is simply a collection of users. Instead of assigning permissions to each user one by one, you can put users into a group and assign permissions to the group. Every user in that group automatically gets those permissions.
