Answer is correct. It is beneficial to sync your on premise AD with the AD Azure to minimize the impact on users

The answer is A. Yes

Syncing all the Active Directory user accounts to Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) is a common strategy to ensure a smooth migration to the cloud while minimizing the impact on users. This approach is often referred to as implementing a hybrid identity model.

By syncing the user accounts to Azure AD using tools like Azure AD Connect, users can continue using their existing credentials to access cloud resources after the migration. This provides a seamless experience for users and reduces the disruption typically associated with migrations.

Therefore, the solution of syncing Active Directory user accounts to Azure AD meets the goal of reducing the impact on users during the migration to Azure.

Yes, the solution meets the goal. By syncing all the Active Directory user accounts to Azure AD, the users will be able to access their resources seamlessly after the migration without any major disruptions. This will reduce the impact of the migration on the users and minimize the need for them to change their existing login credentials.

Answer is NO
How can I connect Active Directory with Azure AD?
Connecting Active Directory with Azure AD enables you to provide a consistent identity experience to your users.

There are a few ways to connect your existing Active Directory installation with Azure AD. Perhaps the most popular method is to use Azure AD Connect.

Azure AD Connect synchronizes user identities between on-premises Active Directory and Azure AD. Azure AD Connect synchronizes changes between both identity systems, so you can use features like SSO, multifactor authentication, and self-service password reset under both systems. Self-service password reset prevents users from using known compromised passwords.
