Azure NetApp Files now supports integration with FreeIPA, OpenLDAP, and Red Hat Directory Server—available in public preview. This LDAP integration enables secure LDAP over TLS connectivity for NFSv3 and NFSv4.1 volumes, allowing enterprises to use these identity systems alongside Microsoft Active Directory.
This enhancement offers seamless integration with existing infrastructure and secure access control for NFS workloads. It’s especially valuable for hybrid environments and regulated industries.
