Hey

As per above title, I am very into Microsoft Azure, having faith restored back into my role as a 2nd line specialist with sorting out certificates for Enterprise Applications that my team support.

I was looking at how do you use Azure daily in your role. For me its adding users into groups, like in Active Directory and updating the certificates but I want to know more and want more of this as I can see a growrth path.

This is so I can see what more I can learn in Azure as I enjoy using this daily.

Azure is great when it works. The company I work for decided to use Azures AD B2C platform for customer facing SSO and its been a nightmare to integrate legacy apps using SAML through custom policies. OIDC integration is pretty decent though. I'd stay clear of that if you can.. though the normal Azure AD SSO integration is very straight forwards and pretty much works out of the box with automated integrations - but thats more for Internal usage rather than B2B/B2C.

Other than that we just use it for a few VMs and data storage blobs.

Azure gets expensive very fast if you're not smart with how you use the resources - to the point where its more cost effective to bring stuff back on site lol!

If I was running a business, personally I would avoid using the VM hosting or storage, unless there was an absolute need.. because I know you can DIY it better/cheaper if you know what your doing.
