Store AD credentials in AWS and rotate automatically
03:55 27 Nov 2025

I deployed a Windows AD server on an EC2 instance in AWS. I have created a user called "tesla" in the AD. How can I store this user's credentials in AWS and rotate the password automatically? Also, how can I retrieve these credentials again after rotation to log into the servers? What about the hundreds of users within the AD server? How can I achieve this?

I know about using AWS Secrets Manager to rotate the credentials, but the problem is: how can I retrieve these credentials to access the servers? How will user1 get his credentials, user2, user3, and so on?
