Explanation
To authenticate users using an on-premises Active Directory Federation Service (AD FS), AWS provides the AWS Directory Service AD Connector. AD Connector is a proxy that connects AWS applications to your on-premises Microsoft Active Directory without requiring complex directory synchronization or the need to set up a separate directory in the cloud. By integrating AD Connector with the Application Load Balancer (ALB), you can authenticate and authorize users using your existing on-premises credentials. This setup allows the ALB to leverage the authentication capabilities of your on-premises AD FS, providing a seamless and secure user
