Amazon MQ now supports LDAP (Lightweight Directory Access Protocol) authentication for RabbitMQ brokers in all available AWS regions. This feature enables RabbitMQ brokers to authenticate and authorize Amazon MQ users using identity providers which support LDAP, providing enhanced security and flexibility in access management. You can now authenticate your Amazon MQ users through the credentials stored in your LDAP server. You can also add, delete, and modify Amazon MQ users and assign permissions to topics and queues.
You can configure LDAP authentication and authorization on your RabbitMQ broker on Amazon MQ using the AWS Console, AWS CloudFormation, AWS Command Line Interface (CLI), or the AWS Cloud Development Kit (CDK). To get started, create a new RabbitMQ broker with LDAP authentication or update your existing broker’s configuration to enable LDAP support. This feature maintains compatibility with standard RabbitMQ LDAP implementations, ensuring seamless migration for existing LDAP enabled brokers. For detailed configuration options and steps, refer to the Amazon MQ documentation page.
