AWS Directory Service Description

AWS Directory Service for Microsoft Active Directory, commonly referred to as AWS Managed Microsoft Active Directory (AD), allows your directory-sensitive applications and AWS resources to leverage a managed version of Active Directory within the AWS environment. This service is based on genuine Microsoft AD and eliminates the need for you to sync or replicate data from your current Active Directory into the cloud. You can utilize standard AD management tools and benefit from integrated features like Group Policy and single sign-on. With AWS Managed Microsoft AD, it’s straightforward to connect Amazon EC2 and Amazon RDS for SQL Server instances to your domain, as well as utilize AWS End User Computing (EUC) services such as Amazon WorkSpaces with AD users and groups. Moreover, AWS Managed Microsoft AD facilitates the migration of applications reliant on AD and Windows workloads to the AWS platform. Additionally, using Group Policies allows for effective management of EC2 instances, enabling the seamless operation of AD-dependent applications in the AWS Cloud. This integration not only simplifies the process but also enhances overall efficiency for organizations transitioning to AWS.
