In this video, we will be seeing about the differences between Managed Identity and Service Principal in Azure, making it perfect for anyone preparing for an Azure Data Engineer Interview. We simplify these concepts using easy-to-understand scenarios, helping you grasp the core ideas effortlessly.

We walk you through practical demonstrations in the Azure portal, showcasing how Managed Identity streamlines resource access within Azure Data Factory, contrasting with the role of Service Principal when integrating external services like Azure DevOps with Azure Databricks.

Using Azure Entra ID (formerly Azure Active Directory), we guide you through the creation and utilization of Service Principals, showing how they enable secure authentication for external tools such as CI/CD pipelines.

The video concludes with a discussion on the pros and cons of Managed Identity versus Service Principal, emphasizing Managed Identity's security and simplicity compared to Service Principal's flexibility, albeit with added complexity.

We also tackle the important question of "When to use what?"—advising viewers to prioritize Managed Identity whenever possible, as recommended by Microsoft.

Whether you're preparing for an interview or seeking to improve your Azure authentication knowledge, this video provides a clear understanding of Managed Identity and Service Principal in Azure deployments.
