- Use the **Certificate Manager** to manage SSL/TLS certificates in other AWS services.
- Supports importing existing certificates as well as issuing new ones.
- Provides Domain Validated (DV) certificates. [Validation](http://docs.aws.amazon.com/acm/latest/userguide/gs-acm-validate.html) is done by sending an email to 3 contact addresses in WHOIS and 5 common addresses for the domain, for each domain name present in the request.
- ACM will attempt to automatically [renew](http://docs.aws.amazon.com/acm/latest/userguide/how-domain-validation-works.html) a certificate issued by Amazon. It will first attempt to connect to the domain on HTTPS and check that the certificate used by the domain is the same with the certificate that it intends to renew. Failing that, ACM will attempt manual validation by sending emails to all domains in the certificate.
### Certificate Manager Alternatives and Lock-in
- ⛓Certificates issued by the Certificate Manager cant be used outside of the services that support it. Imported certificates, however, can still be used elsewhere.

### Certificate Manager Tips
- 🔹**Supported services:** Managed [Load Balancers](#load-balancers) and [CloudFront](#cloudfront).
- 🔸During the domain validation process, Certificate Manager will send an email to every contact address specified in the domains WHOIS record and up to five common administrative addresses. Some anti-spam filters can mark emails as spam because of this. You should check the spam folder of your email if you dont receive a confirmation email.

### Certificate Manager Gotchas and Limitations
- 🔸In order to use **Certificate Manager** for CloudFront distributions certificate must be issued or imported from us-east-1 (N. Virginia) region. Certificates from other regions can [only be used with Elastic Load Balancers](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/acm/latest/userguide/acm-services.html).
- 🔸**IoT** has its [own way](http://docs.aws.amazon.com/iot/latest/developerguide/create-device-certificate.html) of setting up certificates.
- 🔸In order to use **Certificate Manager** for CloudFront distributions certificate must be issued or imported from us-east-1 (N. Virginia) region.
- 🔸Certificates used with Elastic Load Balancers must be issued in the same region as the load balancer. Cetificates can not be moved or copied between regions, as of July 2017. If a domain uses load balancers present in multiple regions, a different certificate must be requested for each region.
