IAM roles for EC2 instances (Jun 2012, announcement)
Instance identity roles supported:
- EC2 Instance Connect uses the instance identity role to update the host keys for a Linux instance.
- Amazon GuardDuty
- AWS Security Token Service (AWS STS) – Instance identity role credentials can be used with the AWS STS GetCallerIdentity action.
- AWS Systems Manager – When using Default Host Management Configuration, AWS Systems Manager uses the identity provided by the instance identity role to register EC2 instances. After identifying your instance, Systems Manager can pass your AWSSystemsManagerDefaultEC2InstanceManagementRole IAM role to your instance.
- Only one role can be assigned to an Amazon EC2 instance at a time [1]
