Identity and Access Management (IAM) in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure

IAM Service Components :

1.Resource:
A cloud object that your company's employees create and use when interacting with Oracle Cloud Infrastructure. Resources include compute instances, block storage volumes, virtual cloud networks (VCNs), subnets, and route tables.

2.User:
An individual employee or system that needs to manage or use your company's Oracle Cloud Infrastructure resources. Users might need to launch instances, manage remote disks, work with your virtual cloud network, and so on.

3.Group:
A collection of users who all need the same type of access to a particular set of resources
or compartment.

4.Compartment

5.Tenancy

6.Policy:
A document that specifies who can access which resources, and how. Access is granted at the group level and compartment level, which means that you can write a policy that gives a group a specific type of access within a specific compartment, or to the tenancy itself. If you give a group access to the tenancy, the group automatically gets the same type of access to all the compartments inside the tenancy.

7.Home Region:
The region where your IAM resources reside. All IAM resources are global and available across all regions, but the master set of definitions resides in a single region, the home region. You make changes to your IAM resources in your home region, and the changes are automatically propagated to all regions.
