Custom interface for Account Factory in AWS Control Tower

#aws #tooling #infrastructure #security

With AWS Systems Manager Automations, you can build a custom interface to create AWS accounts. Thanks to wrapping the existing APIs, you can even enforce custom patterns for the accounts you want to create.
