Summary

This chapter has provided coverage for the AZ-800 Administering Windows Server Hybrid Core Infrastructure exam learning objective: Deploy and manage AD DS in on-premises and cloud environments.

We learned about the concepts of Azure AD and how it compares with AD. We looked at creating and managing an Azure AD DS managed domain. A hands-on exercise then finished the chapter to provide you with additional practical skills.

This chapter aimed to take your knowledge beyond the exam objectives; we added new skills and learning with the content provided. This further develops your knowledge and skills for on-premises network infrastructure services and enables you to be prepared for a real-world, day-to-day hybrid environment-focused role. In the next chapter, we learn the essential skills of managing users and computers with group policy.
