Microsoft Identity
Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS) has been on the market since the year 2000. As you might remember, it arrived with the first release of Windows 2000 Server.
The way it works is, you join your Windows client or server devices to Active Directory (AD) to take over its management layer via either group policies or security settings, or you use it to chain different AD environments to each other to delegate organization permissions to resources that are stored in a different AD environment – in different forests.
Within the context of Microsoft Intune, it’s possible for Intune to manage Windows devices that are both Hybrid Entra joined and Entra ID joined. Devices that are joined to AD DS and need to become available in Entra ID join as well are known as Hybrid Entra ID join. Before your business is ready to work natively in Entra ID, Hybrid Entra ID might be the best option to use as an interim solution.
