Which solution should a database specialist provide for the user to authenticate?
Deploy Active Directory Federation Services (AD FS) on premises and configure it with an on-premises Active Directory. Set up delegation between the on- premises AD FS and AWS Security Token Service (AWS STS) to map user identities to a role using theAmazonRDSDirectoryServiceAccess managed IAM policy.
Establish a forest trust between the on-premises Active Directory and AWS Directory Service for Microsoft Active Directory. Use AWS SSO to configure an Active Directory user delegated to access the databases in RDS for SQL Server.
Use Active Directory Connector to redirect directory requests to the company’s on-premises Active Directory without caching any information in the cloud. Use the RDS master user credentials to connect to the DB instance and configure SQL Server logins and users from the Active Directory users and groups.
Establish a forest trust between the on-premises Active Directory and AWS Directory Service for Microsoft Active Directory. Ensure RDS for SQL Server is using mixed mode authentication. Use the RDS master user credentials to connect to the DB instance and configure SQL Server logins and users from the Active Directory users and groups.
If I had to guess, I’d say the answer is:
Establish a forest trust between the on-premises Active Directory and AWS Directory Service for Microsoft Active Directory. Ensure RDS for SQL Server is using mixed mode authentication. Use the RDS master user credentials to connect to the DB instance and configure SQL Server logins and users from the Active Directory users and groups.
