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 AD concepts, its services, such as AD DS and its components. We looked at the creation and management of AD DS instances in on-premises environments. 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, you will learn about some of the concepts and components of Azure AD DS and learn how to create and manage an Azure AD.
