Segment receives billions of events from our customers daily and has grown in to dozens of <a href="https://hackernoon.com/tagged/aws" target="_blank">AWS</a> accounts. Expanding in to many more accounts was necessary in order to best align with our <a href="https://segment.com/blog/segment-and-the-gdpr/" target="_blank">GDPR and security initiatives</a>, but it comes at a large complexity cost. In order to continue scaling gracefully we are investing in building tooling for employees to use with many accounts, and centrally managing employee access to AWS with terraform and our identity provider.
