Windows Server 2019 connect to EntraID
Hi Microsoft, We have Microsoft servers privately hosted in IBM cloud, and would like to connect the servers directly to EntraID. Is this possible? The current subscription is using Microsoft...
Based on my understanding, Windows Server 2019 cannot be directly joined to Entra ID. However, you can use MDE Servers or Defender for Business servers on your Windows Server 2019 and deploy policies through the Defender Portal without any VPN.
For server management, you need to deploy Azure ARC on those servers and manage them from Azure. However, it is not a replacement for your local AD or GPO.
