Access Account

The Aviatrix Controller is a multicloud and multi-accounts platform. The Controller uses your cloud provider API credentials to make API calls, for example, to launch an Aviatrix gateway instance, on behalf of your cloud accounts.

One cloud credential is represented as an Aviatrix access account on the Controller. The Controller supports multiple Aviatrix accounts. One Aviatrix account can have multiple service accounts from different clouds, one from each cloud. For example, an Aviatrix account named DevOps can have an access account for AWS, Azure ARM credentials, and GCP credentials.

The Aviatrix account structure is shown in the diagram below, where admin is the default user for the primary access account.
