Is it better to create one secret access key per developer or create one key and share it with all developers?

Answer 4

Do not use just one key. Do not create just one access key and share it with all your developers. IF someone leaves the company on bad terms, then you will need to delete the key and create a new one and every developer would then need to update their keys. Instead, create one key pair per developer.
