AWS Lake Formation now enhances cross-account sharing, allowing you to share hundreds of thousands of tables across accounts. You can centralize permissions in Lake Formation for resources such as catalogs, databases, and tables for multi-account analytics environments that require fine-grained access controls at scale.
You can share Data Catalog resources (databases, tables, and columns) with external IAM principals, AWS accounts, AWS Organizations, and organizational units (OUs). Lake Formation sets up a single AWS Resource Access Manager resource share for an unlimited number of tables to another account, eliminating previous resource association limits per resource type. To get started, upgrade to cross-account version 5 through the Lake Formation console or API. Any new cross-account permission grants will automatically use wildcard patterns in the AWS Resource Access Manager resource shares instead of individual resource associations. All existing cross-account shares continue to function, and all existing Lake Formation APIs remain compatible.
