Service Control Policies + AWS Organizations

Imagine you have 5 AWS accounts. And you want to restrict 2 of those accounts from using an AWS service. How will you do that?

This can be achieved through service control policies and AWS organisations.

Create an organisational unit (OU) with those 2 accounts and then restrict access to that OU.

This service control policies control the use of AWS services across multiple accounts.

The IAM policies can be applied only to users, roles and groups. But not to accounts. Whereas SCPs can be applied to accounts or group of accounts.

Application Load Balancer (ALB)

The ALB spans all subnets in a VPC i.e., it is not inside a subnet but VPC. ALB is bound to Target Groups (TGs). TGs are bound to subnets.
