Now some words about Microsoft Azure, Active Directory or Azure AD don't consider it as a replacement
of an on premises Active Directory solution.
It provides identity management for cloud based applications, Microsoft Hardware hosts Azure AD and
that subscribers are responsible for managing only their users and not the underlying software or hardware
azure.
It is a service that provides identity management and access control for your cloud based applications.
You use Azure Ready when you subscribe to Microsoft Office 3065 or Microsoft SharePoint Online or Exchange
Online or Skype for business.
Additionally, you can use Azure ID with Azure apps or Internet connected apps that require authentication.
You can synchronize your on premises Active Directory with Azure ready to allow your users to use the
same identity across both internal resources and cloud based resources.
Azure added does not include all the services available with an on premises Active Directory solution
that uses Windows Server 2016 on premises.
Active Directory in Windows Server 2016 and above supports five services ads or Active Directory Domain
Services ADF or Active Directory Federation Services Active Directory Lightweight Directory Services
or AD LDS Active Directory Certificate Services or ADCS and Active Directory Rights Management Services
or AD RMBS and Azure AD includes only Azure AD which supports identity management in the Cloud and Azure
Access Control Service, which supports for duration with external identity management services, including
your on premises.
Instance of Active Directory Azure AD does not support applications that are integrated with on premises
Active Directory for applications to integrate with Azure AD they must be Azure specific.
Please note that you cannot create ads domain controllers in Asia ready.
You can use Azure AD as a standalone service or integrate it with your existing on premises Active Directory
infrastructure.
However, you do not create or manage the Azure ready systems.
Instead you manage your users in the Azure Ready service.
