Qovery now supports AWS STS: Protect your resources with temporary access keys

We are excited to announce that Qovery now supports AWS Security Token Service (STS) for all our plans! AWS STS is a web service that enables you to request temporary, limited-privilege credentials for AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) users or for federated users who sign in using Single Sign-On (SSO). These credentials are then used to access AWS resources and services.

Using STS is a great way to enhance the security of your AWS account and protect your resources. STS enables you to grant trusted users with temporary access to your resources rather than giving them long-term access keys. This is especially useful when you have a large number of users or when you want to grant access to third-party applications.

To set up STS with Qovery, follow this tutorial. This tutorial will walk you through the process of creating an IAM role and granting permissions to access your managed resources by Qovery.

Once you have set up STS with Qovery's DevOps automation software, you can use it to grant temporary access to all your Qovery services (applications, containers, cronjob, lifecycle jobs...) This will allow you to control and monitor access to your resources more effectively, ensuring that only authorized services can access them.

This new feature is available to all our customers, regardless of their plan. If you have any questions or need help with setting up STS with Qovery, don't hesitate to reach out to our support team. We hope that this new feature will help you to manage better and secure your AWS resources.
