Overview
Depending on project allocations and budgets, we are sometimes offered project-based access to commercial cloud.
We currently have basic patterns in place for accessing both AWS and Google Cloud.
AWS
To log into AWS with your university account:
- Navigate to https://aws.illinois.edu/
- Click "Log In" at the top
- You should be redirected to a shibboleth login screen
- Enter your NETID and password and click "Login"
- If you have configured 2FA for your university account, then you may be prompted for Duo 2FA
You should then be taken to AWS, where you should be prompted to choose a project
Google Cloud
To log into Google Cloud with your university account:
- Navigate to https://console.cloud.google.com/
- Enter your NETID in the e-mail field and click "Next"
- You should be redirected to a shibboleth login screen
- Enter your NETID and password and click Login
- If you have configured 2FA for your university account, then you may be prompted for Duo 2FA
You should then be taken to Google Cloud, where you can "Select a Project" at the top-left
