Microsoft Entra Domain Services for Cloud Infrastructure
Centralized identity and patch management for cloud Windows servers via Entra Domain Services — office credentials everywhere.
Centralized identity & patchingProduction
// problem
Windows servers in the cloud environment relied on separate local credentials. User and access maintenance was manual per-server work, and patch management was decentralized across the fleet.
// approach
Implemented Microsoft Entra Domain Services synced with the Entra ID tenant and domain-joined the cloud Windows servers. Users granted access sign in with their existing office email and password. Centralized patch management applied through the domain.
// architecture
Entra ID tenant -> sync -> Entra Domain Services (managed domain) -> domain-joined Azure Windows servers; access via RBAC/group membership; centralized patch management through the domain.
// outcome
Day-to-day identity and access maintenance for cloud infrastructure reduced significantly, a single credential set for users, and centralized patching across the entire cloud fleet.
