Hi there,
you have several options bounded to your security levels/standards. I think
someone with more knowledge would know a better idea for sure... but I
think you are going to need to authenticate somehow from AWS to your
campus(IPA&AD) directly opening and publishing the needed ports, or via a
couple VM's(1 AD + 1 IPA) in AWS only reachable by those systems you want
to authenticate. The second option sounds more secure.
Things to consider would be: new IP ranges+DNS syncing if you want an A,
PTR records matching and stuff and something like SSO which uses Kerberos,
which relies on correct DNS setup if you want to avoid a headache.
AFAIK, it's a setup still in research phase:
