AWS Active Directory information

AWS Managed Microsoft AD is available in two editions:

  • Standard Edition: optimized to be a primary directory for small and midsize businesses with up to 5,000 employees. It provides you enough storage capacity to support up to 30,000 directory objects, such as users, groups, and computers.

  • Enterprise Edition: designed to support enterprise organizations with up to 500,000 directory objects.

Note

Upper limits are approximations. Your directory may support more or less directory objects depending on the size of your objects and the behavior and performance needs of your applications.

Note

Though CCME does not officially support AWS Simple AD it may work in certains contexts.
