Ultimate access to all questions.
A company operates multiple production applications across various AWS accounts, all within the us-east-1 Region. These applications are accessible only to specific partner companies and are hosted on Amazon EC2 instances within an Auto Scaling group behind an Application Load Balancer (ALB). The EC2 instances reside in private subnets and are configured to accept traffic solely from the ALB. The ALB, located in a public subnet, permits inbound traffic exclusively from partner network IP address ranges over port 80.
Currently, when a new partner is added, the company must update the security group associated with the ALB in each account to include the partner's IP address range. A network engineer needs to implement a solution to centrally manage these partner network IP address ranges.
What is the MOST operationally efficient solution to meet these requirements?
