Amazon SageMaker Notebooks now support Trusted Identity Propagation (TIP) when used with Amazon Athena, Redshift, and EMR Serverless. TIP flows each notebook user's IAM Identity Center credentials to these services via AWS Lake Formation, ensuring access control at the table, column, and row level without relying on shared execution roles.
This method enhances security and auditing by attributing queries to individual users, supporting compliance and reducing administrative overhead due to automatic identity propagation. The functionality is available in all AWS regions offering SageMaker Unified Studio.
