Managing Permissions for AI-Driven Collaborative Analytics
PythonTo manage permissions for AI-driven collaborative analytics, we need to establish access controls that could involve setting up identity and access management (IAM) policies. Depending on the cloud provider and services, this might include creating IAM roles or policies that define who can access specific data and resources, and what actions they can perform on them.
For example, if you're using AWS for your analytics workload, you would generally work with AWS IAM roles, policies, and possibly resource-specific policies for services like Amazon S3 for storing data, AWS Glue for data transformation, or Amazon SageMaker for machine learning tasks.
In this program, I'll show you how to create an AWS IAM policy. This policy could be attached to users, roles, or groups to manage what actions they're allowed to perform on certain resources. For instance, giving data scientists access to run queries on your analytics data but not permitting them to modify the infrastructure setup.
Let's begin with an example of how you could create an IAM policy using Pulumi and the AWS provider.
Here is a Pulumi program written in Python that would help in setting up IAM policies:
import pulumi import pulumi_aws as aws # Define the policy analytics_policy_document = aws.iam.get_policy_document( statements=[{ "effect": "Allow", "actions": [ "s3:GetObject", "s3:ListBucket", "glue:GetDatabase", "glue:GetDatabases", "glue:GetTable", "glue:GetTables", "sagemaker:InvokeEndpoint", ], # The following are placeholder values that you would want to replace with your actual resource ARNs. "resources": [ "arn:aws:s3:::my-analytics-data-bucket/*", "arn:aws:glue:us-east-1:123456789012:database/my_glue_database", "arn:aws:sagemaker:us-east-1:123456789012:endpoint/my_sagemaker_endpoint" ], }], ) # Create the IAM Policy using the defined document analytics_policy = aws.iam.Policy("analytics-policy", policy=analytics_policy_document.json, ) # Export the policy ARN to be used in attaching to roles or users pulumi.export("analytics_policy_arn", analytics_policy.arn)
In the program, we begin by importing Pulumi and the AWS SDK. We then create a policy document that describes the permissions we want. These permissions allow actions like getting objects from an S3 bucket, listing the bucket, getting Glue database and table information, and invoking a SageMaker endpoint.
Note that the
"resources"
list contains placeholders that should be replaced with the actual AWS Resource ARNs that match your resources.After defining the policy document, we create an actual IAM Policy in AWS using the
aws.iam.Policy
resource and assign the policy document to it. Lastly, we export the ARN (Amazon Resource Name) of the policy so that it can be attached to IAM users, roles, or groups using additional Pulumi resources or via the AWS console.This policy can now be used to manage permissions for collaborative analytics in your environment. Depending on your specific requirements, you might choose to create more granular policies for different user groups or add conditional statements to further restrict access.
