Requirements for MediaLive Anywhere
Your organization might be deploying MediaLive Anywhere, which lets you run MediaLive channels on on-premises hardware located in your organization's data center.
You must give your users access to perform MediaLive Anywhere operations:
-
Permissions to perform the initial configuration of the MediaLive Anywhere clusters, and to modify the configuration as required.
-
Permissions to work with MediaLive Anywhere resources when creating channels and running workflows
Configuration actions
Some users in your organization will configure the clusters of on-premises nodes to work with MediaLive. These users need the following permissions. We recommend that you create separate policies for the MediaLive permissions and the Amazon Elastic Container Service permissions.
| Permissions | Service name in IAM | Actions |
|---|---|---|
| Create, modify, and delete networks, clusters, nodes, and SDI sources. | MediaLive | CreateNetwork
DeleteSdiSource
|
| Create a cluster | Amazon Elastic Container Service | In addition to CreateCluster, users need access to actions in Amazon Elastic Container Service.
For more information, see Create special FAS policies. |
| View networks, clusters, nodes, and SDI sources | MediaLive |
|
Runtime actions
Some users in your organization will create push inputs and SDI inputs for sources that originate from your on-premises network. These users need the following permissions. These permissions are in addition to the permissions listed in Requirements for AWS Elemental MediaLive features.
| Permissions | Service name in IAM | Specific activities that the user can perform | Actions |
|---|---|---|---|
| Create push inputs for channels running on MediaLive Anywhere | MediaLive | Specify the network of a static IP address on a push input. (Using a static IP address is optional.) |
|
| Create push inputs for channels running on MediaLive Anywhere | MediaLive | Optionally specify the route for a static IP address on a push input. (Using a static IP address is optional.) |
|
