Overview of Amazon Cloud Directory

  • Amazon Cloud Directory is a fully managed, cloud-native hierarchical data store designed to build directories across multiple dimensions.
  • Enables creation of complex directories for use cases like organizational charts, course catalogs, and device registries.
  • Supports multiple hierarchies within one directory, allowing data to be organized by different schemas (e.g., reporting structure, location, cost center).
  • Scales automatically to hundreds of millions of objects and provides extensible schemas reusable across applications.
  • Eliminates infrastructure and server management, focusing on schema definition and API-based population.
  • Built-in search features allow efficient queries for objects and relationships within large, highly connected datasets.
  • Integrated with AWS CloudTrail for audit logging and resource tagging for better resource management.
