Are you ready to take your expertise in securely integrating Microsoft Azure services to the next level? In this hands-on workshop, I’ll guide you step by step on how to use Managed Identities to connect your applications securely and completely password-free with multiple Azure services. Beyond that, we’ll also cover how to enhance security for the frontend with built-in features from Azure.

We’ll begin with an introduction to the concept of Managed Identities: what they are, how they work, and why they’re a game-changer. Then, we’ll dive straight into the practical part. Together, we’ll connect a custom application running on Azure Container Apps with three Azure services: Azure Database for PostgreSQL, Azure Cache for Redis, and Azure OpenAI. Additionally, I’ll show you how to use Azure Easy Auth to add a login screen to your application with minimal effort and no changes to your application code. We’ll also explore how you can retrieve and utilize the user token in this scenario.

This workshop is designed to ensure you not only understand how Managed Identities and Easy Auth work but also gain the skills to implement them in your own projects. Bring your laptop, roll up your sleeves, and let’s build a secure, passwordless infrastructure for both the backend and frontend together!
