Zorluk: KolayAmazon Cognito Authentication and Authorization

A developer is designing a new web application and needs to implement user sign-up, sign-in, and directory management capabilities. Which Amazon Cognito component should the developer use to meet these requirements?

  1. A
    Amazon Cognito Identity Pools
  2. Amazon Cognito User PoolsCevap
  3. C
    Amazon API Gateway Lambda Authorizers
  4. D
    AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) Roles

Cevap

Amazon Cognito User Pools
The correct answer is Amazon Cognito User Pools because they function natively as a user directory, offering built-in workflows for user registration, user authentication, password recovery, and directory management.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze the core requirements of the application: user sign-up, sign-in, and user directory management.
The application needs an identity provider that can store user credentials, manage user profiles, and issue identity tokens.
This establishes that the task is authentication and identity management.
2
Compare Cognito features against these requirements.
Cognito User Pools provide a serverless user directory, host registration/authentication pages, and issue tokens (ID, access, refresh). Cognito Identity Pools, conversely, provide temporary credentials to access AWS resources.
This clarifies the distinction between user authentication (directories) and resource authorization (credentials).
3
Select the correct component.
Amazon Cognito User Pools satisfies all requirements with minimal configuration.
It matches the target use case perfectly, leaving other components for authorization or custom integration.

Anahtar Kavram

Amazon Cognito User Pools are user directories used for authentication (sign-up, sign-in, password reset), whereas Cognito Identity Pools are used for authorization (granting temporary AWS credentials).
