    It's nice to see the benefits from a business user point of view! Just to clarify - there is no Active Directory Domain Controller and all computers are added only in Azure AD?

    Just speculating but I would say yes since they aren’t physically limited anymore. Mainly Intune + AAD are making this work not just AAD.

    Hi Nikolay! That's right, no ADDC. just Azure AD registered and Intune enrolled. In our practice we always take out any legacy domain controllers.

    @@Xerillion I have couple of questions and hopefully you would not mind me acting like a curious George ...lol. 1.Did you use azure storage or SharePoint for file server? 2. How do they connect to Cloud Infrastructure, Site-2Site VPN or Point-2-Site VPN or ExpressRoute ? 3. Did you have to setup Azure Virtual Network, Azure Firewall, Azure Active Directory Domain Services, NSG, DNS, VMs etc.?
