  1. Shared Access. IAM grants other people, permission to administer and use resources in aws without the need of sharing ur password and access key
  2. Granular permission different permissions can be granted to different people for different resources
  3. Security
  4. Identity Federation it allows the users who already have passwords to get temporary access to ur AWS account
  5. Eventually consistent Data is available at multiple AZ(availability zone)
  6. Free to use
