    AWS Directory Service allows you to set up and manage directories like Microsoft Active Directory in AWS. It offers several directory types, including AWS Managed Microsoft AD, AD Connector, and Simple AD. AWS Managed Microsoft AD allows you to run Active Directory as a managed service while AD Connector redirects directory requests to an on-premises Active Directory without caching data in the cloud. Simple AD is a standalone managed directory powered by Samba 4 that provides some but not all of the features of AWS Managed Microsoft AD.
