Hi Freddy, thanks for the video. Can you start with a file sync to migrate large files and then switch completely to the cloud? This is a consideration for migrating from an on-prem file server that will eventually become obsolete but currently has very large files
Great video! Whats you recommendation for migrating multiple Teams in multiple countries with their network shares to Azure? One Storage Account but different shares for each team mapped by gpo?

Typically that is a good way to go, one storage account and multipe shares. keep in mind that Azure files gives you the option to change the tier on a per share basis so if there is data that can be in Cool tier such as back ups or archival data, data that is not accessed much. this can help with the cost.
Good demonstration. How do we give the permission to user to access the file?

when a File is copied to Azure Files, the file keeps all the ACL permissions so if the file is used from a system that is part of the Active directory the file permissions should apply.
Does this apply to cloud only environment? I want to have AAD joined pc to map the file share but seems not working

the Azure File Share be default is not aware of any domain, you can synchronize your onprem AD to Azure Domain Services and then "join" this Azure Files to this AD and then things should work for you. let me know if this makes sense. thanks for watching
Hey there, I have a question- post migration I compared the count of files and I found some files are missing. I don’t see any error. Please advise..

This maybe a better use case for azure storage mover. this service keeps a count of all the files and does an MD5 equivalent check on all files. sometimes some files are missed due to file naming convention issues the azure logs should provide some insight.
can you provide vido for Azure Files SMB Access with Window AD

sure, I can do that. just to make sure, are you referring to having an Azure files SMB joined to an Active Directory Domain?
