AWS Organizations is well suited for centralized billing and user management of all of your AWS accounts when paired with AWS SSO and a SAML provider of your choice. AWS Organizations does not have an integration with IAM user accounts and this could be helpful for organizations without SAML capability.

I think that the platform is well suited to many Remote Access VPN solutions, but I also think there is a lot of room for improvement on the backend. If you are hoping to deploy your APM solution across many different datacenters or colos, it may not be the best choice for the final solution.

  • There's some more advanced configurations within OAuth that I think could be fleshed out and easier to approach.
  • There's a lot of things in F5 BIG-IP Access Policy Manager policies that I find myself recreating every policy. An easier way to copy objects from one to policy to another.

If F5 BIG-IP Access Policy Manager usability is fine it's not hard to use if you read the documentation but it does feel dated and could use a responsive design update to modernize user interface to current standards.

Not applicable. AWS Organizations is unique in managing multiple AWS accounts.

It is open platform so support is not good and than F5 and features visibility as not good as F5. F5 Set up and easy to use to admin console. Also have more feature visibility for load balancing, web server accelerator, application server ddos protection and WAF. F5 more efficient to handle concurrent request.

Return on Investment
Amazon AWS
  • AWS Organizations allow for quick user access when paired with AWS SSO and SAML groups.
  • AWS Organizations does not use IAM users and there is an initial cost in time to set up AWS SSO.

  • Simplified our approach to company-wide VPN solutions greatly by allowing us to use a single product instead of multiple products like we had before
  • Can handle 15000-20000 users at once with no issues
  • Was able to configure to support users travelling with 4G connections on their laptops and accommodate constant changing IP addresses
