Azure Active Directory for Home network
Is it possible to use Azure Active Directory to manage my home computers and users? In other words, use AAD for home networking as I have used AD server for company networking. Thanks.

Absolutely, it comes down to what you want to achieve though.
I use it for my home, but not for "networking" as all our services and resources are in the cloud as I use AAD for device authentication.

Mainly for user authentication between different devices. It will be easier to manage user. Currently, I add them the old fashioned way. One by one on each device.

Thanks.
