Using a primary account to implement a resource management plan across accounts of an organization

Abstract

A cross-account data management (CAM) service of a provider network may assign, to a primary account of an organization of a client, permission to manage resource management plans for other accounts of the organization. The CAM service may specify, using the primary account (e.g., by an administrator using the primary account), a resource management plan (e.g., data backup plan) The CAM service may indicate, using the primary account, multiple accounts of the organization that the resource management plan is to be implemented for. The CAM service may cause, based on the permission assigned to the primary account, the resource management plan to be implemented for the different accounts of the organization (e.g., by causing execution of jobs to implement a backup plan).
