-This policy allows AWS Application Migration Service (Application Migration Service) to send metadata about the progress of servers being migrated using Application Migration Service to AWS Migration Hub (MGH). Application Migration Service automatically creates an IAM role with this policy attached and assumes this role. We do not recommend that you attach this policy to your users or roles. Migration-progress data is only sent after the AWS "home region” is set in AWS MGH. If the Home AWS Region is different than the AWS Region into which a server is being migrated, this data will be sent cross-region. To stop Application Migration Service from sending this metadata to AWS MGH, detach it from your users or roles.
