automatic tagging for Service Catalog resources

Automating tagging for resources created by AWS Service Catalog

This blog shows how you can automatically propagate account-level tags to AWS resources created by AWS Service Catalog. Service Catalog allows sharing of portfolios across AWS accounts and provides a TagOption library to manage tags on provisioned AWS resources. Resource tagging varies by account, so it is not part of the portfolio product configurations. We designed the solution to reduce the burden on users to a minimum, while also adopting cloud best practices such as infrastructure automation.
