Which authentication method should you recommend?

You have a hybrid configuration of Azure Active Directory (Azure AD). You have an Azure SQL Database instance that is configured to support Azure AD authentication. Database developers must connect to the database instance and authenticate by using their on-premises Active Directory account. You need to ensure that developers can connect to the instance by using Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio. The solution must minimize authentication prompts.

Which authentication method should you recommend?
A . Active Directory – Password
B . Active Directory – Universal with MFA support
C . SQL Server Authentication
D . Active Directory – Integrated

Answer: A

Explanation:

Use Active Directory password authentication when connecting with an Azure AD principal name using the Azure AD managed domain.

Use this method to authenticate to SQL DB/DW with Azure AD for native or federated Azure AD users. A native user is one explicitly created in Azure AD and being authenticated using user name and password, while a federated user is a Windows user whose domain is federated with Azure AD. The latter method (using user & password) can be used when a user wants to use their windows credential, but their local machine is not joined with the domain (for example, using a remote access). In this case, a Windows user can indicate their domain account and password and can authenticate to SQL DB/DW using federated credentials.

Incorrect Answers:

D: Use Active Directory integrated authentication if you are logged in to Windows using your Azure Active Directory credentials from a federated domain.
