Section titled “Concept”AWS Account Management is where you view and change your AWS account’s basic information. It holds the account name, the primary contact address and alternate contacts. Alternate contacts are the details of separate people for billing, operations and security. Some newer Regions are not enabled by default, and you enable them (opt in) from here. If you use AWS Organizations, you can also manage this information for other accounts from a central account.
