Customers can now sign-on to HAQM Redshift cluster with Microsoft Azure Active Directory(AD) identities. This allows customers who use Azure AD to be able to sign-on to Redshift without duplicating these identities in Redshift. 

Built on the industry standard SAML 2.0, Azure AD integration creates a relying party trust between Azure AD and HAQM Redshift to allow Single Sign-On. Azure AD integration is enabled as a configuration for HAQM Redshift JDBC and ODBC drivers. To use this integration with a JDBC driver, the HAQM Redshift JDBC driver must be version 1.2.37.1061 or later. To use Azure AD with an ODBC driver, the HAQM Redshift ODBC driver must be version 1.4.10.1000 or later.

Azure AD integration with HAQM Redshift is available in all AWS commercial regions. For a complete list of AWS regions that HAQM Redshift is available in, see the AWS Region Table.

For information on how to use Azure AD with HAQM Redshift and to configure the JDBC or ODBC drivers, see the HAQM Redshift documentation.
