Abstract

Disclosed are system architectures and techniques for multiple access points for a data container. Control plane and data plane APIs are disclosed for generating access points and associating the access points with data containers, as well as for generating access point policies that specify permissions for the access points. More than one access point may be associated with a single data container. A storage service receives requests directed to the access points, and grants or denies the requests based on the permissions specified in the corresponding policies. Various types of use cases for using access policies are contemplated such as default, regional, or network-based (e.g., VPC-based) use-cases or the like. A system may implement layers of policies such as identity and access management policies, access point policies and data container policies.
