AWS SSO Access

Follow the documentation here for detailed steps on setting up AWS SSO access.

💡 Note: You will need to configure an AWS profile that matches the aws.profile value in your config.yaml file (default: "Solution-Architects.User-979559056307").

Initial File Setup

  1. Copy Files
    • Duplicate the airbnb folder and rename it with your customer name.
    • For a fully managed solution, keep all folders.
    • For a hybrid approach, which doesn’t include VSCode Online, remove the eks-cluster folder.
