Netflix Access & Identity Management
Netflix Access & Identity Management
Embedded Files
Netflix's cloud architecture is responsible for enabling a delightful Netflix experience for millions of members on thousands of supported devices. The first layer of that cloud architecture is called the "Edge".
The Product Edge Systems (PES) organization is responsible for the access management, identity, aggregation API, and playback components of Netflix's edge architecture.
Access & Identity Management (AIM) systems enable secure access to these services. The AIM team prides itself on building and operating highly scalable, performant and resilient distributed systems, that implement server-side security solutions in partnership with our Netflix security engineering teams.
