On Managed Identities vs New Features - Azure Functions in Container App Environments
Why is it that Microsoft regresses on their own recommended best security practices in favor of realising new features? For instance, the recent integration to run function apps on Azure Container Environment sounds great! But wait, how do we connect to ACR to redeploy app when the image is updated, using Managed Identities? No no no, that would take to long to implement let us rather go back to using username and admin passwords ?! #smh
Yes, Managed Identities do not catch up yet, Managed Identities are ideal, using service principals with strong, regularly rotated credentials can be a temporary workaround.
