I need a Windows Server 2022 instance in my existing AWS environment promoted to an Active Directory domain controller. The goal is to provide reliable user authentication across the company network while following Microsoft and AWS best practices. My AWS foundation (VPC, subnets, security groups, etc.) is already in place, but I haven’t deployed any AD roles yet. I’m looking for someone who can: • Deploy and harden the Windows Server 2022 host • Promote it to a new AD forest or integrate with an existing one (whichever you advise after a quick review) • Configure Route 53 so internal devices can resolve the domain controller and any required SRV records • Validate connectivity from on-prem and other AWS accounts/VPCs we peer with • Document the steps and key settings so we can repeat the process in another region later If you have solid experience running AD on AWS and can walk me through the architecture decisions while doing the hands-on setup, let’s get started.

Hi there! Slow or unreliable authentication and messy DNS make user login and access painful. Promoting a server to AD without hardening can risk security and connectivity across AWS and on-prem. I will deploy and harden Windows Server 2022, then promote it to AD following MS and AWS best practices. I will configure Route 53 with the correct SRV records and validate connectivity from on-prem and peered VPCs. I will document every step so you can repeat or extend the setup to other regions. Would you like me to create a new AD forest or review first and integrate with an existing one? Open chat now.
