AWS Lake Formationis designed for managing fine-grained access control to data in an efficient manner:
Granular Permissions: Lake Formation allows column-level, row-level, and table-level access controls, which can precisely define access to PII data.
Integration with AWS Glue Catalog: Lake Formation natively integrates with AWS Glue for seamless data cataloging and access control.
Operational Efficiency: Centralized access control policies minimize the need for separate IAM roles or policies.
Why Other Options Are Not Ideal:
Option A:
Creating multiple IAM policies introduces complexity and lacks column-level access control.Not efficient.
Option B:
Managing multiple IAM roles for granular access is operationally complex.Not efficient.
Option D:
Creating views in Glue adds unnecessary complexity and may not provide the level of granularity that Lake Formation offers.Not the best choice.
