A company has an environment that has a single AWS account. A solutions architect is reviewing the environment to recommend what the company could improve specifically in terms of access to the AWS Management Console. The company's IT support workers currently access the console for administrative tasks, authenticating with named IAM users that have been mapped to their job role.
The IT support workers no longer want to maintain both their Active Directory and IAM user accounts. They want to be able to access the console by using their existing Active Directory credentials. The solutions architect is using AWS Single Sign-On (AWS SSO) to implement this functionality.
Which solution will meet these requirements MOST cost-effectively?
