ARN

Term

Amazon Resource Name (ARN)

(Usually pronounced “arn”)

A standardized way to refer to an AWS resource. For example:

arn:aws:iam::123456789012:user/ division_abc/subdivision_xyz/Bob

Objects in AWS have an ARN to which they can be referred. In context with N2WS, we need ARNs to define which Amazon SNS to use for notifications and alerts.
