Though you can federate Cognito with Active Directory, Cognito is for providing access to your own applications, NOT to AWS Resources.

While Amazon Cognito can integrate with Active Directory, it is more focused on providing identity management for mobile and web applications. In this scenario, where the primary concern is integrating with existing on-premises resources, using SAML-based federation with IAM roles is more appropriate.

Use Amazon Cognito via SAML integration. (SAML) is an open federation standard that allows an identity provider (for this case on-prem AD) to authenticate users and pass identity and security information about them to a service provider (for this case AWS). I will settle for D, because this is definitely required for this to work.

D. An Amazon Cognito user pool is a user directory for WEB and MOBILE app authentication and authorization. So it is not a best option for corporate users.

Cognito is for app users, to authenticate users accessing your apps. Cognito is NOT for granting access to AWS resources.
