Overview of this book

From designing solutions on Azure to configuring and managing virtual networks, the AZ-303 certification validates your knowledge and skills for all this and much more. Whether you want to take the certification exam or gain hands-on experience in administering, developing, and architecting Azure solutions, this study guide will help you get started. Divided into four modules, this book systematically takes you through the wide range of concepts and features covered in the AZ-303 exam. The first module demonstrates how to implement and monitor infrastructure. You'll develop the skills required to deploy and manage core Azure components such as virtual machines, networking, storage, and Active Directory (AD). As you progress, you'll build on that knowledge and learn how to create resilient and secure applications before moving on to working with web apps, functions, and containers. The final module will get you up to speed with data platforms such as SQL and Cosmos DB, including how to configure the different high availability options. Finally, you'll solve mock tests and assess yourself with the answers provided to get ready to take the exam with confidence. By the end of this book, you'll have learned the concepts and techniques you need to know to prepare for the AZ-303 exam and design effective solutions on Microsoft Azure.

Understanding and implementing OAuth2 authentication in Azure AD

The Microsoft identity platform supports industry-standard protocols such as OAuth 2.0 and OpenID Connect, as well as open source libraries for different platforms. Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) uses OAuth 2.0 to allow you to authorize access to resources in your Azure AD tenant. OpenID Connect is then used in your custom applications as middleware to communicate with the OAuth 2.0 framework.

There are two primary use cases in the Microsoft identity platform programming model:

  • During an OAuth 2.0 authorization grant flow: During this flow, a resource owner grants authorization to the client application. This will allow the client to access the resources from the resource owner.
  • During resource access by the client: During this flow, the claim values present in the access token are used as a basis for making access control decisions. This is implemented by the resource server.

The OAuth 2.0 authorization...
