How can I use the AWS caller identity for working in a multi-tenant application hosted on the AWS?

 In the context of AWS, you can use the AWS caller Identity for ensuring tenant isolation in a multi-tenant-based application by just leveraging AWS identify and access management (IAM) along with the AWS Identity federation services like Amazon Cognito or even your can use AWS single sign-on.

Here is a high-level approach example given in Python programming language by using the boto 3 library:-

Import boto3

# Assume role based on the caller’s identity

Sts_client = boto3.client(‘sts’)

Caller_identity = sts_client.get_caller_identity()

# Get tenant ID or other identifying information from the caller’s identity

Tenant_id = caller_identity[‘Account’]

# Use the tenant ID to determine resource access or apply appropriate policies

# Example: Restrict access to an S3 bucket based on tenant ID

S3_client = boto3.client(‘s3’)

Bucket_name = f”tenant-data-{tenant_id}”

Response = s3_client.list_objects(Bucket=bucket_name)

In this above example, the code assumes a role based on the identity of callers by using AWS security token services and then it would use the tenant ID to access the Resources such as an S3 bucket.
