AWS Management

TagOps provides comprehensive AWS account and organization management capabilities, allowing you to connect, configure, and manage multiple AWS accounts and entire AWS Organizations from a single interface.

Overview

AWS Management in TagOps enables you to:

  • Connect Individual AWS Accounts: Add and manage standalone AWS accounts
  • Manage AWS Organizations: Deploy TagOps across entire AWS Organizations using CloudFormation StackSets
  • Centralized Configuration: Configure regions, services, and tagging rules across all connected accounts
  • Unified Resource Tagging: Apply consistent tagging policies across your entire AWS infrastructure

Account Management Options

TagOps supports two primary methods for managing AWS accounts:

Individual Account Management

Use Case: Connect standalone AWS accounts or accounts not part of an AWS Organization

Features:

  • Direct account connection via IAM roles
  • Per-account configuration
  • Manual account addition and management
  • Ideal for small deployments or accounts outside organizations

Organization Management

  • Organizational Unit (OU) targeting
  • Centralized organization-wide configuration
  • Bulk account onboarding

Choosing the Right Approach

Use Individual Account Management When:

  • ✅ You have a small number of accounts (1-5)
  • ✅ Accounts are not part of an AWS Organization
  • ✅ Accounts are in different AWS Organizations
  • ✅ You want to add accounts one at a time

Use Organization Management When:

  • ✅ You have an AWS Organization with multiple accounts
  • ✅ You want to deploy TagOps to many accounts at once
  • ✅ You want automatic deployment to new member accounts
  • ✅ You prefer centralized management through StackSets

Mixed Environments

You can use both approaches simultaneously:

  • Organization accounts: Managed through AWS Organization Management
  • Standalone accounts: Managed through Individual Account Management

All accounts appear in the same interface and count toward your subscription account limit.

Organization Member Accounts

When you add an AWS Organization, each member account you onboard counts toward your subscription account limit. For example, if you have a limit of 10 accounts and an organization with 15 member accounts, you can only onboard 10 of them.
