A company needs to set up user authentication for a new application. Users must be able to sign in directly with a user name and password, or through a third-party provider.
Which AWS service should the company use to meet these requirements?
AWS SSO is more suited for managing access to multiple AWS accounts, while Amazon Cognito is designed specifically for user authentication in applications.
I was debating between Cognito and IAM Identity Center, but I think Cognito is the better fit here. IAM Identity Center is more for managing access across multiple AWS accounts, whereas Cognito is focused on user authentication for individual applications.
Definitely Cognito. It's got built-in support for things like social logins and federated identities, which is exactly what the question is describing.

Yeah, I agree with Adaline. Cognito is the AWS service that's designed for this kind of user authentication use case. The other options don't really fit what the question is asking for.
This is a pretty straightforward question, I think. The company needs a service that can handle user authentication, including third-party providers. That screams Amazon Cognito to me.
