Overview

The project is a collection of AWS Security Control Policies that can be used to control costs on accounts. The policies:

1. restrict use of expensive instance types for EC2 and Amazon SageMaker
2. restrict use of expensive RDS instance types
3. restrict access to specified regions
4. restrict access to certain services, such as Amazon Redshift

Restrict SageMaker Studio Instance Types

This policy applies to SageMaker Studio Apps, and will limit the types of instances that can be used. You can customize the sagemkaer:InstanceTypes array in the condition property to control the allowed instance types.
