Amazon DataZone introduces new designations in projects for members to perform specific tasks

Amazon DataZone launches new project designations allowing customers to configure project members to do specific tasks while collaborating with other members in a project. Amazon DataZone is a data management service for customers to catalog, discover, share, and govern data at scale across organizational boundaries with governance and access controls.

With the new designations in Amazon DataZone projects, team members can collaborate in a project while performing specific tasks as defined by the designation they are assigned to by the project owners. With this launch, members in a project can be a consumer, a steward, or a viewer. Based on the designation assigned, the member can browse and subscribe to assets in Amazon DataZone’s catalog as a consumer, approve and reject subscription requests to assets in the owning project as a steward, or just browse and view assets subscribed in the project they are part of as a viewer. With these defined activities for members in a project, Amazon DataZone establishes governance controls for members in a project while encouraging collaboration.

Support for Amazon DataZone’s fine-grained project roles is available in all AWS Regions where Amazon DataZone is available.
