AWS Org Formation

The AWS Organization is initialized, managed, and synced using org-formation-cli.

AWS SSO

AWS SSO MUST be selected for authentication over hard coded credentials for ease of maintenance and security. Developers can SSO in to sandbox environments.

Domain Registration

Register a domain name through Route 53 in AWS master organization. In this case, nekosgate.com was used. Delete the hostedZone in master account as org formation will create one.

After running ./bin/sync.sh get the name servers for the hosted zone in master account and use them to update the Registered domain's nameservers in Route 53.

Getting Started

  1. Login to the AWS Management Console. Go to Org Formations and create an Org.

  2. Use an existing IAM user with adequately permissions or create an Administrator IAM user. Set user or Administrator aws_access_key_id and aws_secret_access_key credentials in ~/.aws/credentials if missing.

  3. Initialize the organization using a user with adequate permission or the Administrator profile recently added. This pulls changes for the AWS Organization to the Org template file.

    org-formation init organization.yml --profile=Administrator --region us-east-2

Updating Org

  1. Edit the desired YAML files within this directory making the desired change. Org Formation does not delete accounts. Accounts must be deleted from within AWS.

  2. Update the Organization resources using a user with adequate permissions.

    org-formation update organization.yml --profile=Administrator

ACM WildCart Certs

For ACM cert verification it is important to have email setup for the domain as to verify the domain. AWS WorkMail or other can be used for this purpose. This allows for the wild card certs to be verified.
