child_account_roles module

Creates "standard" IAM policies and roles in an account being treated like an AWS organizations child account.

Picture our collection of AWS accounts with the "common-services" account being the root of an Organizations hierarchy, where all of the users exist there and AssumeRole to the correct role in the child account.

common-services
    prod-c2
    test-c2
    prod-customer-1
    prod-customer-2
    ...

This module makes roles that are NOT SAML linked. It is expected you will AssumeRole into these roles cross-account.
