AWS Resource Access Manager

AWS Resource Access Manager handles the logistics of sharing resources across accounts or organizations. Instead of duplicating infrastructure, you create a resource share and specify which principals can access it. This covers common scenarios like sharing VPCs, transit gateways, subnets, or IPAM pools, ensuring consistent network configurations without manual cross-account setup.

This approach suits enterprises managing multiple AWS accounts who need centralized control over shared assets. The main friction point is the lack of a free tier; every shared resource incurs pay-as-you-go charges. For small teams or single-account setups, the overhead and cost might outweigh the benefits of cross-account sharing.
