Azure AD Pass through authentication roadmap/GA?
We have a customer really interested in this new AADConnect feature. They have a complicated ADFS setup and we are thinking about "migrating" to this new feature "Azure AD Passthrough Authentication". We are fine with an evaluation during preview phase, but at the moment don't have any information about a GA date. We need a rough estimate. H2 2017? Q3 2017? 2018? On what offical roadmap would I find this feature? Checked O365 and Cloud plattform without success.
That is what we are looking for:

There is no official roadmap that provides specific dates for the availability of features for Azure Active Directory and Enterprise Mobility + Security. You might hear estimations during events or in 1-1 discussions but as i said there is no web site that you can see dates for GA of features.
The Public roadmap site only lists features (no dates or estimations) that are currently in public preview or recently avaiable in GA https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/cloud-platform/roadmap-public-preview
As others mentioned in this thread, Azure AD Pass-through authentication is currently in public preview since last December. The team is working hard to incorporate the feedback and be able to GA in the next few months.

So to summarize: session is from Sep 2016 and service was in private preview. Target release (GA?) was planed for 1H CY 2017 and public preview soon. Soon happend 2016-12-07 the https://blogs.technet.microsoft.com/enterprisemobility/2016/12/07/introducing-azuread-pass-through-authentication-and-seamless-single-sign-on/ announced the public preview. Looks like everything is on track... but this featute is not tracking in any of the cloud roadmaps from Microsoft... a little bit sad, but maybe a PM from the EMS team will shed some light on one of my peers tomorrow ;)
Nasos_Kladakis is the only one that can give more details here :)
