At the iSchool, any AWS accounts that are paid from funds (grant or otherwise) managed by the iSchool should be created/converted to UW AWS accounts. This allows the iSchool to utilize payment via BPO, and adds other savings and features detailed in the linked service description. All UW AWS accounts are set up via a 3rd party company called DLT.

AWS account owner/operator:

• Oversee AWS account budget & actual costs
• Ensure use of AWS resources in accordance with project purposes
• Responsible for security of all data and AWS resource configuration
• Manage project member access to AWS account resources (add/remove as needed)
  

iSchool IT:

• Facilitate new AWS account setup and existing account transfers to DLT
• Establish iSchool AWS ‘best practices’ and process documentation
• Configure UW accounts/groups to ensure consistent AWS notifications/administration
• Configure UW NetID logins and access management groups for AWS accounts

DLT:

• Creates AWS accounts under their ‘management account’
• Acts as primary contacts on AWS accounts (if AWS tries to contact the account holder).
• Offers management interface

UW-IT:

• Defines the service requirements with AWS for UW accounts
• Maintains the contract with DLT
• Approves individuals to request an AWS account via DLT
