A practical guide to cloud IAM.
Identity and Access Management underpin all modern cloud services. No matter what product you are building, your team and your applications need access to your cloud.

Lean Cloud Identity puts together the best practices in IAM that you can adopt quickly to make meaningful improvements to your cloud environment.

Hey, I'm Chris. I learned cloud IAM the hard way: building a product on AWS at my first startup with no prior cloud experience. I've spent the last five years helping teams small and large set up secure and well-architected cloud environments using AWS, Google Cloud, and Azure. I'm now building open source IAM products as co-founder of Common Fate.
