Houseki no Kuni/Land of the Lustrous Wig Tutorial: How to Create a Beautiful Gem-like Finish!

(Left photo taken by @/mystes_photo on Instagram)

When I first saw the characters in Houseki no Kuni, I knew right away that I wanted to cosplay Diamond, but to be honest, I did not like any of the commonly used methods to achieve the iridescent effect at the time (cellophane can easily be damaged, glitter doesn’t have the finish I want, resin is difficult to work with, etc.), so I did some research on ways to achieve a more convincing finish.

My main inspiration came from nail artists achieving a smooth iridescent finish similar to what I wanted for my wig (Fun fact, I became a SimplyNailogical fan during this whole process XD). Once I discovered that iridescent nail powder was the key material I needed, from there, I did some trial and error experiments to figure out the best method to apply it onto a wig and came up with this method!

This is not a styling tutorial on how to create a Diamond wig specifically, but rather how to create the unique gem-like finish on any wig! This tutorial can apply to any Houseki no Kuni/Land of the Lustrous character you’d like! :D

(Disclaimer, this method and the Diamond wig pictured above were created in 2021, but the wig featured in this tutorial was styled in 2024)

Skill level: Intermediate

Prerequisite: At least basic wig styling skills, dependent on character

Materials needed:

Wig (style varies based on character, but I recommend using a thick base wig if you can! )

Wig head that’s close to the size of your head to ensure that style conforms properly to your head size

Wig stand

Got2b spray and glue

Flexbond primer (amount needed varies, but for reference, I was able to cover my Diamond wig with about ¾ of a 16 oz bottle)

Mod Podge Gloss waterbase sealer (optional if Flexbond is tacky enough on its own)

Iridescent/holographic nail powder (any can work depending on the finish you want, but I used the Aurora pigment powder from the brand What’s Up Nails. One little 1 gram jar was enough to cover two Diamond wigs with quite a bit left over, a little goes a long way!)

Clear gloss varnish

Spray bottle

Wide decoupage brush and/or any wide paintbrush

Silicone face mask brush (optional, but I find it great for smoothing out thick coats of Flexbond)

Mini scissors to trim stray hairs and/or excess Flexbond

Latex or vinyl gloves to rub on nail powder

Safety requirements:

Wear gloves to protect your hands. The nail powder is safe to touch barehanded, but the rubbing needed to buff the powder onto the wig may cause skin irritation or chafing if done excessively.

The nail powder is very fine, so I suggest wearing a face mask to avoid breathing it in/blowing it away. There are no toxic fumes or substances used in this tutorial, so a basic face mask should suffice.

Keep the floor covered to protect the Flexbond from getting on it and causing a slipping hazard (also great for easy cleanup!) I initially laid out a bunch of old Amazon bags around the wig stand, but I recently picked up a handy device from Assist Wigs in Japan that was originally designed to catch cut wig hair, but it does a pretty good job catching dripping glue and loose nail powder as well!

Step 1:

Style your wig as you would a normal wig. This is highly dependent on the character you choose, but from experience, I have two tips I would highly recommend:

Make your wig about 10-20% fuller than you want the final wig to be. Like how actual hair flattens when it’s wet, depending on how the wig is styled, the same thing may happen once the Flexbond is added.

Try to keep at least the outer layer of hair on your wig as smooth and free of tangles as possible. When you coat the wig with Flexbond, any knots or irregularities in the wig will be emphasized. To avoid this, thoroughly comb through your wig to get rid of tangles and straighten any kinks or irregularities. Teasing your wig can leave the outside looking messy, so try to stick to the crimping method to add volume to wigs if needed, or at least limit teasing to areas that will be hidden with smoother hair later on.

I was quite fortunate that there’s an official 3D model video with the perfect references for Diamond’s hair that I was able to use as reference for my wig!

Step 2:

If you haven't already, protect the floor underneath your wig with any sort of protective covering to catch the Flexbond that will drip down from your wig.

Step 3:

Use Got2B spray and spiking glue to hold the style in place to prepare for the next steps. Apply enough to make the wig relatively stiff, but avoid getting the hair saturated up to the point where the hair looks wet and stringy.

You'll know your wig is ready for Flexbond when your wig is quite stiff on the outside, as shown in the video above.

Step 4:

Take your Flexbond and dilute it with water to make a thin sprayable glue. I recommend about a 1 to 3 ratio of Flexbond to water to create a solution that is thin enough to easily spray yet still strong enough to be an effective glue. I would say the viscosity is similar to milk.

Step 5:

Apply the diluted Flexbond to the wig in a fine mist. If you see any significantly large droplets, use your fingers to carefully smooth them out. Do your best not to press down too hard or oversaturate the wig, as the goal is to create a hard outer shell on your wig rather than to saturate the entire wig in glue.

Repeat Step 5 a few times until your wig feels solid up to the point where the wig hair stays in place even when shaken around (or even turned upside down!) This step is very important because this creates the solid foundation for your wig that will support all the thick Flexbond layers you will be applying later.

Step 6:

Once your wig is solid, coat the outer surface of the wig (you can cover all visible hair if desired, but I like having the hair inside soft against my skin) with a generous coat of Flexbond. You want this first coat to be thick enough to completely cover the outside of the wig’s surface, but not so much that the Flexbond is dripping.

However, if noticeable drips do occur, you can smooth them out with your brush while they’re still wet or trimmed off with scissors if already dried.

Repeat Step 6 for about 2-3 layers or until your wig has a smooth, almost glossy looking appearance, as pictured below.

Below are a few helpful tips to help you with this step!

Remember how if you did Step 5 correctly, you should be able to turn the wig upside down? You can use this to your advantage to help you coat the bottom half of the wig! Just be sure that the top half is completely dry before you place it on a surface. I would also alternate between coating the top half and the bottom half to keep the coats even.

2. You can use the Flexbond to gradually fill gaps between the fibers for a smoother appearance. Also, the more layers, the less emphasized the hair strands will be on the final product.

Step 7:

If you have stray hairs or glue strands that you find distracting, you can trim them off using a sharp pair of scissors. In the example above, you can see how I trimmed the frayed-looking ends of the hair to create nice clean points

Make sure to do this step prior to applying any nail powder to avoid wasting powder that be covering an area that will be cut off.

Step 8 (Possible extra step):

The first time I made my Diamond wig, I was able to rub the nail powder directly onto the Flexbond, which was just tacky enough for the powder to adhere itself to the wig. However, this time around, the Flexbond was not tacky enough and the powder would not adhere properly. I am unsure why this occurred, whether it was the weather/humidity (I created the first wig around Summer 2021 vs. this wig in late winter/early spring 2024) or Rosco tweaking the Flexbond formula sometime in the past few years. Thankfully, I was able to remedy this issue by applying a thin coat of Mod Podge Gloss, which I found stayed temporarily tacky for about 20 minutes after drying.

If you also encounter the same issue, apply a layer of Mod Podge Gloss over your wig. Check it frequently to able to apply the powder as soon as possible once it is dry before the Mod Podge loses its tackiness. Don't be too impatient though, as the Mod Podge will smear if you try to apply the powder before it is dried.

(I’m not sure if using only Mod Podge to create this outer shell would work as opposed to using the Flexbond due to its lower viscosity and lack of flexibility in thicker coats, but I do think it’d be an interesting experiment to try! If it’s successful, it’d be a much more accessible and budget-friendly option!)

*If the Flexbond you applied is tacky enough to apply powder onto directly, you can skip this step and jump ahead to Step 9.

Step 9:

Once your wig is dry, put on your gloves and dip your finger into the nail powder to coat it with a thin layer of powder. Take this powder and buff it onto the surface of your wig, similar to how you would buff nail powder onto your nails. Buff thoroughly until the surface is smooth and looks reflective. It should look almost like metallic/iridescent paint was applied rather than a powdery glitter. Continue this process on the entire wig.

Step 10

If you feel like you need more coverage with the nail powder after applying the first layer, coat the wig with another coat of Flexbond/Mod Podge (depending on what you use to adhere the nail powder), let it dry, then apply another layer of nail powder. You can repeat this process until you satisfied with the coverage. Depending on the powder used, I find that at least 3-4 coats are needed to obtain full coverage and a smooth finish!

Step 11:

Once you are satisfied with the finish, coat the wig in one last layer of Flexbond to protect the finish and add a bit of depth to the glassy finish as opposed to varnish alone.

Step 12:

Add a final coat of gloss varnish to give your wig a beautiful glassy finish! You may notice the Flexbond turning white again underneath the varnish. Do not panic, Flexbond is known to do that when it gets wet! Once everything is dry again, it will return to being clear. :)

You Did it!

Now you have your finished Houseki no Kuni wig with a lovely iridescent finish that is not only beautiful, but also indestructible (seriously, I’ve thrown this thing at a wall and it stayed in perfect condition XD) and super easy to put on (very flexible and goes on like Lego hair XD)!

For my second Diamond wig, I wanted to be experimental and try remaking the wig with a shape more accurate to the show (less visible hair strands and more like solid shapes) and adding subtle stripes of color underneath the Flexbond. I will be honest, I actually ended up liking the first one a tad more ^^; It’s okay though, I still learned a lot, and I feel the mistakes I went through the second time around really helped me perfect the technique for this tutorial :)

Another key thing that I messed up on for the second wig is that due to lack of time, I was unable to apply as many layers of the nail powder as I would've liked. As mentioned in Step 10 above, adding at least 3-4 coats will result in a smooth lovely iridescent finish, as seen here on my first Diamond wig!

As mentioned before, this tutorial can apply to any Houseki no Kuni character! Here’s a little work-in-progress of my Phos wig! :) I actually used body glitter by Nyx Cosmetics instead of nail powder because it gave a similar smooth finish to the nail powder and gave the wig more of a blue-green-gold shift rather than a full iridescent rainbow spectrum.

Bonus tip: for characters who have multiple distinct layers/sections in their hair, like Phos in this example (undercut and top half), I suggest applying the Flexbond and nail powder in sections as opposed to all at once.

Final words

Thank you so much for taking a look at my tutorial! I can’t wait to see all the lovely wigs that can be made using it~ ^_^

☆ﾟ*・ﾟWOAH is that CULLEN ZEPHYRUS ? i’ve heard they’re a FAE working here as a CRYPTOLOGY TUTORIAL PROFESSOR. they came here because THEY WERE OFFERED A JOB and they’ve been working here for 0 years. as a 667 / 28 year-old, i’m sure they’re skilled. someone told me they’re COCKY &  IMPULSIVE but i think they’re INTUITIVE  & WILLFUL. i can’t help but think of LEATHER WRIST BANDS TIED TO HIS WRIST, INSTAGRAM FILLED WITH EXOTIC LOCAL PICTURES, A MESSY MOP OF CURLY HAIR, WITH A PHD HANGING BEHIND HIM ON THE WALL when i look at them. ( tommy martinez, cismale, he/him ) — boo (filling astoria’s ex wanted connection)

Born to an angelic mother and a devil for a father.  Cullen became fascinated in knowing more of the world he had no ties too.  He became bored with the world of Avalon, viewing it as a plan of empty promises and just a spot their parents dumped their regrets.  When he turned a 100, he left and only goes back when the pain becomes unbearable to remain out of it.

Cullen became fascinated with the realm of mortals.  He enrolled in a normal university in London, and pursued his first bachelors in archaeology.  Using this degree, he began exploring the depths of the mortal world that others wouldn’t out of fear of death. 

He wanted to chase adventures, and when he returned back to Avalon just shy of fifteen years of leaving it.  He met Astoria, fresh from Avalon and he wouldn’t lie.  He was taken a back by her.  Everything he never thought he would want, but he found himself drawn to her.

He changed his plans, canceled a trip to the Amazon to offer his experiences with Astoria..  The two began dating not long after, and for a short while Cullen thought perhaps he had found the one person he could chase every wish he had with. He wasn’t as well off as her, he’d have to wait several thousand years before he could touch that but he still wanted to give her the world and everything in it. 

 Which is what he strives to do, he took Astoria to some of the wildest places on earth.  He took her to see some of the greatest wonders of the world.  Enjoying just getting lost in the world with her.  

He had even prepared to propose to her during an aurora borealis, when he was blind sided by her breaking up with him.  He took the breakup a bit harder then he’d admit.  He put himself back into school, got another degree and began traveling more in depth again. He sought the mysteries of egypt, followed a wild goose chase through south america, climbed several mountains and finally.  As the modern age began to become more prevelant.  

He put himself back into school, this type for computer information specialist training and cryptology.  He fell in love with codes and numbers and took great joy and finding new challenges to keep him engaged.  

He hoped that if he never found the world boring, perhaps he’d never end up like the older fae in Avalon.

Preparing on-premises and AWS environments for external Kerberos authentication for Amazon RDS

As database security becomes more and more essential to the success of a business, managing user access to databases effectively has always been a challenge to database administrators (DBAs) and security officers. Traditional database authentication is based on a username-password mechanism. This method unfortunately requires effort from both DBAs and users to maintain the credentials; it also incurs extra work for security officers from an auditing perspective. Integrating relational database authentication with a centralized authentication service such as Microsoft Active Directory (AD) is a common and proven practice to address this challenge. Kerberos is a network authentication protocol developed by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). It uses tickets and symmetric-key cryptography to eliminate the need to transmit passwords over the network. The Kerberos ticket is a certificate issued by an authentication server, encrypted using the server key. Kerberos has been built into Microsoft AD and is designed to authenticate users to network resources, such as Amazon RDS for PostgreSQL, Amazon RDS for Oracle, Amazon Aurora PostgreSQL and Amazon RDS for SQL Server. Amazon RDS for PostgreSQL, Amazon RDS for Oracle, Aurora PostgreSQL and Amazon RDS for SQL Server support external authentication of database users using Kerberos and Microsoft AD, including those running on premises. This feature provides the benefits of single sign-on (SSO) and centralized authentication of database users. Keeping all your user credentials in the same AD saves you time and effort because you can have a centralized place for storing and managing them for multiple database instances. In this series of posts, we demonstrate how to authenticate database users for Amazon RDS for PostgreSQL, Amazon RDS for Oracle, and Aurora PostgreSQL with Kerberos, your on-premises Microsoft AD, and AWS Managed Microsoft Active Directory provided by AWS Directory Service. For external Kerberos authentication for Amazon RDS for SQL Server, please refer to this Blog. Trust between the on-premises AD domain and AWS Managed Microsoft AD domain For the users in your on-premises AD domain to access the Amazon RDS resources in the AWS managed domain, we need to establish a trust relationship between the two domains. Trust relationships provide a mechanism for one domain to allow access to the resources based on the login authentications of another domain. The flow of communication over trusts is determined by the direction of the trust: One-way trust – A unidirectional authentication path created between two domains. In a one-way trust between Domain A and Domain B, when Domain B has configured to trust Domain A, users in Domain A can access resources in Domain B; however, users in Domain B can’t access resources in Domain A. Two-way trust –Domain A trusts Domain B, and Domain B trusts Domain A. This configuration means that authentication requests can be passed between the two domains in both directions. AWS Directory Service supports both one-way and two-way trust. Unless you have specific business requirements, one-way trust is recommended for better security. With one-way trust between your on-premises domain and AWS managed domain, you configure the trust in your on-premises domain as one-way: incoming, and configure the trust in your AWS managed domain as one-way: outgoing. With this configuration, the on-premises domain takes the role of the trusted domain, and the Directory Service managed domain takes the role of the trusting domain. Validated authentication requests travel between the domains in only one direction—allowing accounts in your on-premises domain to authenticate against resources in the AWS managed domain. In this case, users are authenticated by the on-premises domain, whereas Amazon RDS interact only with the AWS managed domain. Directory Service supports two types of trusts: Forest trusts – When you configure a forest trust, you can allow any contiguous namespaced domain in the trusting forest to be accessible to any security principal in the trusted forest. You most likely configure forest trusts if your organization has two or more AD forests. Forest trust provides name suffix routing, which routes the Kerberos authentication requests to the correct domain. External trusts – External trusts enable you to configure one domain in one forest to trust a domain in another forest without enabling a transitive trust. With external trust, name suffix routing is not provided. Microsoft recommends forest trusts where possible. Forest trusts ensure that Kerberos is used whenever possible. Different database management applications running on different platforms (Windows or Linux) for different Amazon RDS engines require different trust types.  Amazon RDS for PostgreSQL and Aurora PostgreSQL have the following requirements:  Forest trust is required by psql and pgAdmin running on a Windows client. These tools rely on name suffix routing, which is only provided by forest trusts to forward Kerberos authentication requests from an on-premises AD domain to an AWS Managed Microsoft AD domain. Both forest trusts and external trusts work for Java-based software on Windows (such as DBeaver) and for applications running on a Linux client (such as psql). For Linux and Java-based software, Kerberos can forward the authentication requests to the AWS Managed Microsoft AD domain based on the [domain_realm] section in the Kerberos configuration file (commonly known as krb5.conf).  For Amazon RDS for Oracle, the trust type can be either forest trust or external trust, because the Kerberos configuration file (commonly known as krb5.conf) is required by SQL Developer and SQL*Plus (on both Windows and Linux) for cross-domain Kerberos authentication.  In this post, we use one-way (on-premises domain: incoming and AWS managed domain: outgoing) forest trust between the on-premises domain and AWS managed domain, as shown in following architectural diagram. Initial infrastructure configurations For demonstration purposes, we created three AWS accounts. The account on-prem-account simulates your on-premises environment. Accounts aws-acc-1 and aws-acc-2 simulate your AWS environment: AWS Managed Microsoft AD is created in aws-acc-1 and is shared with aws-acc-2; Amazon RDS resources are created in both aws-acc-1 and aws-acc-2. AD users in on-prem-account log in to the Amazon RDS resources in aws-acc-1 and aws-acc-2 via Kerberos and Microsoft AD authentication from the Windows and Linux client joined the on-premises domain. Important Note: To follow this tutorial you’ll need 3 AWS Accounts. This tutorial will also incur costs of services involved in this demo including following services: Amazon Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) AWS Transit Gateway AWS Managed Active Directory Amazon RDS You are responsible for the costs related to your use of any AWS services used while running this Quick Start reference deployment. Prices are subject to change. For more information, see the Cost and Licenses section. The following are the details about the three accounts: on-prem-account – This account has two VPCs: one for the on-premises AD domain onprem.local and one for the on-premises Windows and Linux clients where the on-premises users log in to. The following table summarizes these details. VPC/Subnet CIDR on-prem-ad-vpc 10.10.0.0/16     on-prem-ad-vpc-sn 10.10.0.0/24 on-prem-client-vpc 10.11.0.0/16     on-prem-client-vpc-windows-sn 10.11.0.0/24     on-prem-client-vpc-linux-sn 10.11.1.0/24 aws-acc-1: We create Directory Service in this account. It has two VPCs. The first is for AWS Managed Microsoft AD ad.myaws.com; this directory service is shared with aws-acc-2. The other VPC is for Amazon RDS resources. The following table summarizes these details. VPC/Subnet CIDR aws-acc-1-mad-vpc 10.20.0.0/16      aws-acc-1-mad-sn-1 10.20.0.0/24      aws-acc-1-mad-sn-2 10.20.1.0/24 aws-acc-1-rds-vpc 10.21.0.0/16      aws-acc-1-rds-sn-1 10.21.0.0/24      aws-acc-1-rds-sn-2 10.21.1.0/24      aws-acc-1-rds-sn-3 10.21.2.0/24 aws-acc-2: This account has one VPC for Amazon RDS resources; details shown in following table. VPC/Subnet CIDR aws-acc-2-rds-vpc 10.31.0.0/16      aws-acc-2-rds-sn-1 10.31.0.0/24      aws-acc-2-rds-sn-2 10.31.1.0/24      aws-acc-2-rds-sn-3 10.31.2.0/24 We build our environment for external Kerberos and Microsoft AD authentication for Amazon RDS resources based on the preceding environments. Creating network connections between VPCs To allow on-premises users to access the Amazon RDS resources, network connections need to be in place among on-prem-account, aws-acc-1, and aws-acc-2. There are different options to build network connections between your on-premises infrastructure and the VPC, and network connections between VPCs. AWS Transit Gateway is one of the options and is recommended. AWS Transit Gateway connects on-premises networks and VPCs through a central hub. This simplifies your network and puts an end to complex peering relationships. It acts as a cloud router—each new connection is only made one time. We use AWS Transit Gateway to link VPCs when the VPC connection is required. The solid blue lines in the following diagram indicate the required network connections between VPCs. On-premises AD and AWS Managed Microsoft AD After you create the network connections between VPCs, complete the following steps: In the on-prem-account, we create a Windows EC2 server and promote it to be our on-premises AD and domain controller server with following details: VPC – on-prem-ad-vpc Subnet – on-prem-ad-vpc-sn IP – 10.10.0.192 Domain – onprem.local For instructions, see Set Up Your Environment for Trusts. In the aws-acc-1 account, we create an AWS Managed Microsoft AD with the following details: Edition – Standard Directory DNS name – ad.myaws.com Directory NetBIOS name – ad VPC – aws-acc-1-mad-vpc Subnet – aws-acc-1-mad-sn-1, aws-acc-1-mad-sn-2 IP – 10.20.0.59, 10.20.1.188 Directory ID – d-97671c6bae After creating the AWS Managed Microsoft AD, share it with aws-acc-2. The Amazon RDS resources in aws-acc-2 join this shared AWS Managed Microsoft AD. From aws-acc-1, sign in to the Directory Service console. On the Directories page, select myaws.com. On the Actions drop-down menu, choose Share directory. Select Share this directory with other AWS accounts. For AWS account IDs, enter the ID for aws-acc-2. Choose Add. The share status shows as Pending acceptance. From aws-acc-2, sign in to the Directory Service console. Under Active Directory, choose Directories shared with me. Select the directory ad.myaws.com shared by aws-acc-1 and choose Review. Review the directory sharing invitation, acknowledge the cost, and choose Accept. The directory share status in aws-acc-1 changes from Pending acceptance to Shared. Establishing a one-way forest trust Amazon RDS for PostgreSQL and Aurora PostgreSQL require a forest trust to enable name suffix routing. Name suffix routing allows us to configure how Kerberos authentication requests are routed when we configure a forest trust between two AD forests. Kerberos authentication for Amazon RDS for Oracle works with forest trusts and external trusts because the domain-to-realm mapping is provided by the Kerberos configuration file (krb5.conf). We use a one-way (on-premises domain: incoming, AWS managed domain: outgoing) forest trust in this series of posts because a forest trust is recommended and works for Amazon RDS for PostgreSQL, Amazon RDS for Oracle, and Aurora PostgreSQL. In on-prem-account, create a security group to have the following ports open between the onprem.local server and the VPC and subnets of the AWS Managed Microsoft AD: TCP/UDP 53 – DNS TCP/UDP 88 – Kerberos authentication TCP/UDP 389 – LDAP TCP 445 – SMB  The following screenshot is an example of the inbound rules of a security group associated with the onprem.local server. For an on-premises corporate network, the firewall must have the following ports open between your on-premises clients and the VPC and subnets of the AWS Managed Microsoft AD: TCP/UDP 53 – DNS TCP/UDP 88 – Kerberos authentication TCP/UDP 389 – LDAP TCP/UDP 445 – SMB TCP/UDP 464 – Kerberos authentication UDP 123 – NTP UDP 137-138 – Netlogon TCP 135 – RPC TCP 139 – Netlogon TCP 636 – LDAPS (LDAP over TLS/SSL) TCP 3268-3269 – Global Catalog TCP 1024-65535 – Ephemeral ports for RPC ICMP – All In aws-acc-1, open the Amazon VPC console. Choose Security groups. Search for your AWS Managed AD directory ID. In the search results, select the item with the description “AWS created security group for directory ID directory controllers.” On the Outbound rules tab of that security group, choose Edit. Choose Add another rule. For the new rule, enter the following values: Type – All traffic Protocol – All Destination – The traffic that can leave your AWS managed domain controllers and where it can go in your on-premises network. Specify a single IP address or an IP address range in CIDR. Log in to the onprem.local domain controller server. In DNS, choose New Conditional Forwarder. For DNS Domain, enter the domain name of the AWS Managed Microsoft AD. For IP addresses of the master servers, provide the two IPs of the AD. You can ignore the red icon that appears next to the IPs. Choose OK. Creating an incoming forest trust You now create a one-way: incoming forest trust with AWS Managed Microsoft AD ad.myaws.com. On the loprem.local domain controller server, in Active Directory Domains and Trusts, choose Properties. On the Trusts tab, choose New Trust. Choose Next. For Name, enter the name of AWS Managed Microsoft AD (ad.myaws.com). Choose Next. For Trust Type, select Forest trust. Choose Next. For Direction of Trust, select One-way: incoming. Choose Next. For Sides of Trust, select This domain only. Choose Next. For Trust password, enter a password to use when we create the trust relationship in AWS Managed Microsoft AD in aws-acc-1. Choose Next. In the Trust Selections Complete section, review your settings and choose Next. In the Trust Creation Complete section, review your settings and choose Next. For Confirm Incoming Trust, select No, do not confirm the incoming trust. Choose Next. In the final section, choose Finish. Creating an outgoing forest trust Now you can create a one-way: outgoing forest trust in AWS Managed Microsoft AD ad.myaws.com on the Directory Service console in account aws-acc-1. On the Networking & security tab, choose Add trust relationship. For Trust type, select Forest trust. For Existing or new remote domain, enter onprem.local. For Trust password, enter your password. For Trust direction, select One-way: outgoing. For Conditional forwarder, enter 10.10.0.192. Choose Add. The one-way forest trust is established and verified successfully. After the trust is created, log in to the onprem.local domain controller server. On the Trusts tab, choose your domain (ad.myaws.com) and choose Properties. Make sure that the on-premises Microsoft AD domain name includes a name suffix routing that corresponds to the newly created trust relationship. Joining Windows and Linux clients to an on-premises domain Now we create an AD user joedoe@onprem in on-premises AD, and join one Windows client and one Linux client to the on-premises domain onprem.local. Later on, we log in to the Windows and Linux client as joedoe@onprem and connect to Amazon RDS resources with Kerberos and Microsoft AD authentication. Create an AD user joedoe in onprem.local, and make sure that Do not require Kerberos preauthentication is deselected. Create one Windows EC2 server and one Linux EC2 server in on-prem-client-vpc, and join the Windows and Linux server to the on-premises local domain. For the Linux client, configure the /etc/krb5.conf file as the following: [joedoe@ip-10-11-1-23 ~]$ cat /etc/krb5.conf # Configuration snippets may be placed in this directory as well includedir /etc/krb5.conf.d/ includedir /var/lib/sss/pubconf/krb5.include.d/ [logging] default = FILE:/var/log/krb5libs.log kdc = FILE:/var/log/krb5kdc.log admin_server = FILE:/var/log/kadmind.log [libdefaults] dns_lookup_realm = false ticket_lifetime = 24h renew_lifetime = 7d forwardable = true rdns = false default_realm = ONPREM.LOCAL default_ccache_name = /tmp/kerbcache [realms] AD.MYAWS.COM = { kdc = ad.myaws.com admin_server = ad.myaws.com } ONPREM.LOCAL = { kdc = onprem.local admin_server = onprem.local } [domain_realm] .ad.myaws.com = AD.MYAWS.COM ad.myaws.com = AD.MYAWS.COM .onprem.local = ONPREM.LOCAL onprem.local = ONPREM.LOCAL .rds.amazonaws.com = AD.MYAWS.COM .amazonaws.com.cn = AD.MYAWS.COM .amazon.com = AD.MYAWS.COM Summary In this post, we talked about the difference between two domain-trust directions, one-way and two-way trust, and the difference between two trust types: forest trust and external trust. To enable external Kerberos authentication for Amazon RDS, a one-way (on-premises domain: incoming, AWS managed domain: outgoing) forest trust is recommended between the on-premises domain and AWS managed domain. We then created the infrastructure and resources for the external Kerberos authentication for Amazon RDS based on three AWS accounts. Now we have achieved the following: Network connections on the on-premises account, aws-acc-1, and aws-acc-2 via AWS Transit Gateway. An AWS Managed Microsoft AD ad.myaws.com in aws-acc-1 and shared with aws-acc-2. A one-way (on-premises domain: incoming, AWS managed domain: outgoing) forest trust between the on-premises AD domain onprem.local and AWS Managed Microsoft AD domain ad.myaws.com. A Windows client and Linux client joined to the on-premises AD domain. An on-premises AD user joedoe@onprem, who can log in to the Windows and Linux client with AD authentication. With this infrastructure in place, we’re now ready for the forthcoming series of posts: Using external Kerberos authentication with Amazon RDS for PostgreSQL, in which you create Amazon RDS for PostgreSQL instances in aws-acc-1 and aws-acc-2 and enable Kerberos and Microsoft AD authentication for database users; Using external Kerberos authentication with Amazon RDS for Oracle; and Using external Kerberos authentication with Amazon Aurora PostgreSQL.

AWS MasterClass: Go Serverless with AWS Lambda & AWS Aurora ##Edx ##UdemyFreeDiscountCoupons #Aurora #AWS #Lambda #Masterclass #Serverless AWS MasterClass: Go Serverless with AWS Lambda & AWS Aurora The next big thing in Cloud computing is Serverless architecture. So what is this Serverless computing architecture? Traditionally the applications are developed and deployed in servers. Apart from coding, the developer should also look into pre-deployment checks such as storage allocation, and server maintenance. With Serverless computing, the code execution is entirely managed by the cloud provider. Developers can concentrate on the coding part, and the cloud provider takes care of managing, provisioning and maintaining servers for the code deployment. Serverless architecture has an automatic scaling feature which helps to reduce the computing and operational costs. Serverless doesn’t require containerization, developers or programmers will write code in the vendor console. AWS Lambda is a front runner in serverless computing services. Even companies like Netflix, Codepen, Zalora, Coca-Cola, and Nordstrom have embraced AWS serverless. There is no wonder why there is an increased demand for developers with AWS Lambda skills. According to Indeed jobs listings, Average salary of developers with AWS Lambda skills is $121,481. That's why today, we are thrilled to be able to share with you our new training program "AWS MasterClass: Go Serverless with AWS Lambda and Amazon Aurora.” What does the AWS Serverless course offer to you? 1. You will learn AWS Simple Storage Service, its features. How to host a static website (in HTML) using S3. 2. Learn about the basics of API Gateway.
