Explains how Azure Active Directory differs from on‑prem AD (LDAP/Kerberos vs SAML/OAuth), shows AD Connect syncing choices, and demos logging into Azure SQL Database and Managed Instance using Azure Data Studio and SSMS with MFA. Covers using service principal identities for automation (required to add AAD users to Azure SQL), guest access across tenants, device join for Windows 10, app proxy for publishing on‑prem apps, advanced threat detection, and which premium features need per‑user licensing.
