Microsoft Workloads on AWS Blog



This article provides a comprehensive guide to integrating multiple identity providers with AWS IAM Identity Center using Okta as an identity hub. The solution enables organizations to manage complex identity landscapes across different authentication systems.

  • Uses Okta to centralize authentication from multiple identity providers (specifically two Microsoft Entra ID tenants)
  • Enables just-in-time user and group provisioning
  • Provides a consistent authentication experience across different identity sources
  • Simplifies access management to AWS resources
  • Supports configuration with SAML-based identity providers

The walkthrough covers key steps including setting up groups, configuring Okta as a service provider, creating permission sets in AWS IAM Identity Center, and testing the configuration with users from different identity sources.
