Abstract
A customer of a resource allocation service can register a function to be executed using virtual resources, where the function includes customer code to be executed. Customer events are defined as triggers for a registered function, and a resource instance is allocated to execute the registered function when triggering event is detected. An identity role associated with the triggering function is used to obtain access credentials for any data source which a triggering event might require for processing. An event-specific access credential is generated that provides a subset of these access privileges using a template policy for the registered function that is filled with values specific to the triggering event. The filled template policy and base credential are used to generate an event-specific credential valid only for access needed for the event. This event-specific credential can be passed with the event data for processing by an allocated instance.
