FSLogix profile container using Azure Files and domain controller step by step
Stefan Georgiev ... Very much interested in this but waiting for native AD support to get out of Preview. Any idea when that might be coming?

Gunjan Jain great news... Will keep my eye's open for this!

Nagorg-Terralogic i have tested the Azure Files as backend for FS Logix for days now - and its pretty well varying in performance - i get some really weird lockups from time to time where the VM is freezing a bit..
Using azure files premium, premium ssd and E8s 8 Cores 64 gig memory..
It works - but there are some really strange "pauses" 😞
- This is a concern of mine. Not sure how practical it is to use a PaaS storage backend for FSLogix profile containers. But I do like the concept..
Nagorg-Terralogic Why would having to maintain two file servers (HA) be more practical?
Christian_Pedersen What is pausing the replication?
Stefan Georgiev well call it "freezes" (5-10-15 seconds) - its kind of difficult to be 100% accurate if its the storage system or the issue with Office and Modern Authentication that im also struggeling - because it seems that if Office have ADAL disabled it can also cause freezes in the users profile on Open/Close actions
Nagorg-Terralogic I am not directly owning Azure Files hence will let that team announce any changes in the status of that product.
Nagorg-Terralogic I do not have an official date. That will come from the Azure Files team.
