Azure Active Directory (AAD) plays a crucial role in securing data and managing user access across various services. As a data engineer, understanding Azure Active Directory is essential for managing access, ensuring security, and maintaining smooth operations in your cloud-based data projects. This course will provide you with an in-depth understanding of Azure Active Directory fundamentals tailored for data engineers. From setting up an Azure account to understanding roles, RBAC, and group management, you’ll gain practical knowledge that will enhance your ability to manage access control and security in real-world scenarios.

Here’s what you can expect from this course:

1. Create Your Azure Account: You’ll start by learning how to set up an Azure account, ensuring you have a strong foundation to work with Azure Active Directory and related services. Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced Azure user, this section ensures you’re ready to dive into Azure AD.
2. Introduction to Azure Active Directory (AAD): Gain a clear understanding of what Azure Active Directory is and how it serves as the backbone for identity and access management in the cloud. We’ll explore the components and capabilities of Azure AD and how it differs from on-premises directories.
3. Understanding Users in Azure AD: Learn how to create and manage users in Azure Active Directory. You’ll understand how user identities are stored, managed, and integrated into various cloud services. From creating single users to bulk importing, this section covers the essentials of managing users.
4. Granting Access to Azure Services Using Roles: Access management is a critical aspect of any Azure data engineering project. In this section, you’ll discover how to assign roles to users and grant access to specific Azure services. You’ll learn how to ensure the right people have the right access while maintaining the security of your environment.
5. Working with Azure Role-Based Access Control (RBAC): Azure RBAC is the key to controlling what resources your users can access and what actions they can perform. We’ll cover the details of how RBAC works, the different roles available, and how to implement role-based access control in a real-world environment.
6. Introduction to Groups in Azure Active Directory: Groups are essential for managing access at scale. You’ll learn how to create groups, manage membership, and apply roles to groups to streamline your access management process. This section ensures you can handle large teams and multiple users efficiently.
7. Granting Access to Groups Using Roles: Explore how to grant access to entire groups of users at once by assigning roles to Azure AD groups. This is particularly useful when managing teams or departments that require similar permissions.
8. Difference Between Azure AD Roles and RBAC Roles: One of the most important distinctions to understand in Azure is the difference between Azure AD roles and RBAC roles. This course will clarify this distinction and help you understand when to use which, ensuring proper access control for your users.

By the end of this course, you’ll have a comprehensive understanding of Azure Active Directory and the tools needed to manage access securely and efficiently. Whether you’re a data engineer looking to enhance your skills or an Azure developer aiming to deepen your knowledge, this course is designed to give you hands-on experience and practical knowledge that you can apply directly to your projects.
