[00:06:33] Speaking of AWS SSO — how folks are finding their implementations of AWS SSO w/ SAML vs IAM SAML. I’ve worked with AWS SSO but it was before it had Terraform support and even now that it does have Terraform support, it seems limited. I’d like to hear about any pitfalls, what can and can’t be automated today, and what to watch out for. @Matt Gowie
