AWS Cognito is a managed platform as a service (MaaS) that enables you to create, manage, and secure identities for users in your organization. With Cognito, you can create a secure user pool and manage authentication, authorization, and data access for users across your applications.

PRO TIP: Cognito in AWS is a managed service that provides federated identity, access control, and user management with sign-in and sign-up capabilities for web and mobile applications. It is important to note that Cognito is not a general-purpose identity provider and does not support all the features of a traditional identity provider. Additionally, Cognito does not support single sign-on (SSO) across multiple applications.

You can also use Cognito to create and manage user profiles and sign-in experiences. Finally, you can use Cognito to secure user data in the cloud.

Cognito provides a secure, managed user pool that enables you to create a single sign-on experience for your users. You can use Cognito to manage authentication, authorization, and data access for users across your applications.
