Data Engineering on Microsoft Azure - Azure for DE: 18 - Azure data lake security - Azure Key Vault and managed identity

Hey data engineers! You already know that we can connect to a storage account using an access key (bad practice, I know). One of the issues of using it inside ADF is that it might get hardcoded in a linked service definition. If only there was a service in Azure that we could use to centrally store such secrets and simply reference them instead of hardcoding… And there is - Azure Key Vault! But wait, how do we connect to it in a secure way? Wouldn't it be the same issue as we had when connecting from ADF to a storage account? Well, that's where managed identities come in handy. Join me in the 18th episode of my free DP-203 series where I talk about Key Vault and managed identities.
