Can you please advise if, for Exchange 2013 and newer, Federation Trust's provided functionality is better provided by either A) OAuth between Exchange/EXO, or B) the Hybrid Agent (for non-full Hybrid)?

 

I'm trying to find documentation that states Federated Trust is not required for 2013 and newer hybrid deployments.  This article is close :

 https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/exchange/configure-oauth-authentication-between-exchange-and-exchange-online-organizations-exchange-2013-help

 

Question 2, in the absence of Federation Trust's, is OAuth being setup a prerequisite to Organization Relationship's, or do these simply work without any other backing system, for 2013 and newer?
