Answer:

group managed service account

Step-by-step explanation:

A group managed service account gMSA is a extension to the standalone Managed Service Account (sMSA). sMSA is a managed domain account that automates password management, simplifies service principal name (SPN) management and delegates management to other administrators. it was introduced in Windows Server 2008 R2 and Windows 7. However, the group Managed Service Account (gMSA) provides all the functionalities of an sMSA but also extends this functionality over multiple servers.
