Before I am going to describe my questions, I would like to tell you that I am a web developer and not a security/Active Directory or Azure specialist, so please be gentle :-)
I work for a large international financial services company. We have a global IT department that provides member firms with services that we use (Active Directory 2012).
In my member firm, we are currently considering migrating custom build websites to Azure. All the custom build websites are implemented with Kerberos and Single Sign-On using Active Directory. Some of these websites read & write information in Active Directory.
The challenge that we are facing is how we can migrate these websites to Azure whilst using the enterprise's Active Directory. I searched for detailed information about solutions available but haven't found anything that answered my questions. My questions:
- What solutions are there for connecting Azure with an enterprise's Active Directory?
- What are the advantages and disadvantages for these solutions?
- What are the requirements for these solutions?
Perhaps there is a book/blog/whitepaper that answers my questions?
